Note also for piping penetrations through bunds - For either earth or concrete, but especially for concrete wall bunds, the buncefield tank farm fire showed that many penetrations failed during the long pool fires causing leakage of product and millions of gallons of water / foam. Hence although it can get in the way of hydraulics, going up and over the bund is now recognised as the safest way to di it.
Otherwise is mainly comes down to access and maintenance. Any electrical equipment (actuators etc) need to be rated for hazardous area, but otherwise you just need to think what would happen if the bund was full of whatever liquid is in your tank.

No real advantages and a lot of negatives.
