Hey, welcome and enjoy your stay

[Il Padrino di mafiosi]

So is someone asking if we should have a stock market for companies, if so then yes...

[tommot]

I too would not object, if there is a safe way to use it.

scammers will be the first to try and exploit it if there is a hole.

i would like a stock market but you need an economy to have one of those  we are a long ways away

[jkeller4000]

i think firsdt should come a bond market! 

 

countries will not go inactive.  but if the ceo goes inactive. then all share holders are basically screwed.

 

or if the largst share holder goes inactive one of the smaller share holders would steal evertyhing from the company.

 

 

but bonds!  that would be really exciting!  the government could control the economy differently.

 

if the governemt wanted more investments in factories.  less bonds issued.  less factories issue bonds at a rate of return that they feel is acceptable!

Technically speaking this is still possible, albeit without game support.

 

In the real world a Bond has its value from the confidence in the entity that has issued the Bond. I believe this would also work in eRepublik, too.

 

Countries that are deemed credible will be able to offer lower coupons (interest payments) than those deemed uncreditworthy. Of course, if I country does not want to borrow money, then why should they issue Bonds in the first place?

[lovely 1992]

Yes this will be good... Its a new idea.. We should implement it...

[jkeller4000]

 Of course, if I country does not want to borrow money, then why should they issue Bonds in the first place?

 

 

monetary control! we have inflation, the country that issues the most bonds and buys the most items can benefit from the inflation.

 

but your right most countries have a positive balance of money, and most countries would not be able to pay back any bonds if they were taken over,  so only citizens of the country might invest.  but it would allow countries to keep fighting after they run out of money could be beneficial some times!
