Setterberg

Swedish surname pronounced "cedar barre," translated means "tree on the hill" and also "king of the hill," the name signifies the dominant family of Sweden, capable of owning any other clan community in the Scandinavian area. The Setterberg clan has translated their dominance of Sweden into all subsequent areas of life, including sports, academics, and culture. Since their emigration westward throughout the 19th century, their superiority now extends throughout North America and continues to permeate the western Hemisphere.
Their first place finish came as no surprise to the world media; being a Setterberg, complete dominance is expected.

Bank for International Settlements

(ECONOMICS) Bank for central banks. It takes deposits from central banks and provides financial services, including underwriting bills of exchange. It is based in Basle, Switzerland and was founded in May 1930, for the purpose of facilitating reparations payments by Germany to the Allies.

The BIS also provides a forum for international coordination of monetary policy, conducts financial research, and acts as an agent or trustee for international financial settlements. About 140 central banks and international financial institutions have deposits with the BIS. As of June 2010, currency deposits totaled approximately $303 billion dollars, or about four percent of world foreign exchange reserves.
The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) was created by the Dawes/Young Plan for coordinating the transfer of billions of Reichsmarks in reparations from Germany to the Allied powers after WW1. Almost at one, the BIS switched to managing international transactions of gold or hard currency. It also facilitated financial transactions between the Nazi regime and neutral countries during the War.

The BIS provides a very wide variety of specialized services, including underwriting and arbitration in fiduciary disputes.
