    As a person who is Swiss and has lived a while in Japan, everyone says “Heidi”. I think Heidi/the alps is the biggest stereotype of Switzerland to japanese people, not banking.

      What’s “Heidi”? I need to ask my wife about this one. Is the pronunciation like German on this word for reference?

          Thanks for responding. I’ll check it out tomorrow (and ask my wife if she’s heard of it)
