[font=agency fb] In 218 AS, as mass production of jump gates moved into high gear, funding became an issue for many foreign corporate and government entities that wished to finance jump routes of their own. To encourage construction, Ageira Technologies and Deep Space Engineering capitalized a wholly independent entity, Interspace Commerce (IC), to offer loans and assist in the financing of jump-gate construction. By 350 AS, IC became the primary financier of trade lanes for the other houses.
In a joint venture, IC and Ageira Technologies recently developed a new real-time scanner system, called Universal Ship Identification (USI), that can be installed in jump gates and trade lanes. It allows IC to track shipments and levy tariffs appropriately. Some houses suspect that IC is using this data to gain a competitive advantage, but so far, nothing can be proven.
Interspace is now heavily into insurance, an insures most high value cargo throughout Sirius.
History
218 A.S. - Company is formed by a partnership between Agiera technologies and Deep Space Engineering to fund and stimulate Jump Gate construction in other houses outside of Liberty.
350 A.S. - IC becomes the primary financier of trade lanes for the other houses.
523 A.S. - IC agrees to forgive all debts to foreign houses, and turns control of the trade lanes and jump gates in those houses over to their governments, in exchange for tolls for using said routes for the next 200 years.
535 A.S. - IC expands its operations and begins insuring shipments throughout Sirius.
700 A.S. - IC and Ageira Technologies partner in a project to develop a system for real-time scanning of cargo passing thru trade lanes and jump gates.
The Security Division main tasks are to defend container ships of IC and also to actively hunt pirates and Hacker vessels. The basic information for the Security Division is below:
The Transportation Division main tasks are to safely take cargo from A-B, assist others and hire new pilots to the company. The basic information for the Transportation Division is below:
The Insurance Division main tasks are to maintain the company's loaning business and handle the company financially. The basic information for the Financial Control Division is below:
Interspace Commerce has bases and operations in the four houses. Liberty, Rheinland, Kusari and Bretonia. Its hard for a single person to give the proper attention needed at each of the four houses so we have developed a new system. A Public Relations Chancellor. (PRC)
There is one PRC to each house and they control a IC Yacht docked on our controlled base in that house. They are tasked with the following on in their house:
1) Reply to forum role play threads from factions in their house.
2) Make forum role play threads to factions in their house.
3) Will be on-call to help recruits get repped and kitted up in their house.
4) They will control the Yacht as a 'forward base' to support the IC Banking.

Questions can be asked here and to possibly join add me on Skype. Thank you for your time.
I have noticed some of your ships around, usually the pilots have been very polite,
by lore my traders are generally misspleased with interspace, so i grunted at them mostly, sorry for that, but you are the most evil bank in sirius.
Personall i do not think that interspace is or should be a shipping company, but i wish you good success non the less, found a faction, ???, profit; Cheers:)

I know, I to also felt that shipping isn't part of our role but if we followed that, how could we ever be a discovery faction? We do however, offer loans/insurance for RP reasons and to follow what IC should be like. We are trying our best.
I think that Interspace Commerce should be kind of greedy faction and try to get more money in any way possible. They can also resort to smuggling or smth else but that's just my idea.

We currently, don't allow smuggling. However, we may start to later on. Take the IND for example, they have a 'if you get caught, don't get caught. Everyone has a price.' ideology. We may adapt this. Undecided for now.
