Natasha - You .should. have gotten your share late last night. As thats when I forwarded the (new) list to the BIGun handling the shares.
He might not have gotten around to it (RL interference). If thats the case, you will at the earliest be getting it on monday.
Theres a month to first dividend payout however - So "Dont Panic" 
(You can take this post as confirmation that your ISK was recieved btw - I've checked)

I checked out the interface, and used the system earlier today; it's simple to use, professional, and fast.
...not only that, but TornSoul herself was manning the console, and we talked about the project and it's expectations; she answered every question I had with her usual candor and clarity, and I must say that this project is going to raise the level of experience for the whole of EvE - you may not use it, though there will be many who do - and the vision of a true virtual, publicly owned corp is going to transform the way we think about the game.
If you're on the sidelines, check out the interface at the website and talk to the members that represent BMBE in the channel of that name.
I did, and now I own stock.

Good website for starters. The detailed guide has lots of typos though. 
Sounds like an excellent system you have setup.
Good luck on your ground-breaking endeavour! (I'm a shareholder, and I expect a nice profit dividend ^_^) ___________________________________________________ "I'm an engineer, not a miracle worker!" - Scotty, Star Trek: The Original Series |

I'm wondering, would the shareholders have a look-in on the balance of the 50B isk?
What I am asking is, would I, as a shareholder, at any time be able to check how much isk and in what amounts per person have been loaned out? The client's name could remain hidden, the only info sent would be, when the amount of isk has been loaned and for how long.

I see this as a smart move.
Especially with capital ships on the rise - imagine an alliance gets its member corps to put in a BS or two each as collaterol to fund the purchase of DN and then pays back over time via mining ops etc.
If anyone can make this work BIG can, and they have the track record. I'm gonna grab a few shares.
I could even imagine game mechanics evolving to support such a venture, perhaps even a 'loan tax' alongside corp tax controlled by the borrower.

@Serendipity007
I have to admit that the Detailed BMBE guide was done in the last minute. Ie. no proof reading was done - It will get fixed though.
@Aedara It is not practically possible to have this info availabe for shareholders only - As we have no control of the movement of the shares, and thus dont know who holds them
The plan is however to make public a monthly report.

That is why I asked if I could enquire as a shareholder. Say u have a designated "shareholders relations" person or something that would handle such matters.
I'm sure the investors would be interested to know, when their money gets lent out and for what kind of period and return they can expect, maybe not all, but for some that would be a great help and I'm sure it would also disolve many trust issues. No matter what u say, 50bil isk is no small ammount this day and age.

A Balance sheet is indeed a good idea for both the shareholders to see what their money is doing and for you as BMBE as well to attract possible new investors. Being an auditor in real life .. it's kind of my business. ;) Wondering when the first public auditing firm will open in EVE :P
and p.s.: Still waiting for my shares. ;)

Any special privileges for shareholders would be impossible to cater for. As TornSoul mentioned, there is no way for us to know who has our shares. Sure, we issued them out to buyers, but they could (possibly already) change hands on several occassions. We cannot track that. A monthly report is the only way for the BMBE to show how much, how long and why for.

I gave 50m to TornSoul 3 days ago, but still no share. Is the person in charge of shares afk or has my payment been missed?

I didn't say the information should be available only for shareholders and only distributed to shareholders. A monthly (or bi-monthly) report on this forum or BiG Forum would do it.
One more question: Will there ever be the possibility to open an account and pay in money and get interest in return? Or will BMBE exclusively raise its funds from stock increases?

Sorry, my above reply was in response to Aedara's comments about a "shareholders relations" person.

I may have missed it in the thread but is your bank going to offer user services such as normal deposits and CD's ?
It could be that after your innitial IPO gets you rolling that you will find a LOT of liquidity in the offering of interest bearing deposit accounts.

Via ingame mechanics. They simply distribute X amount of money to the corp share holders as dividend and you get a % of it according to how many shares you own.

Well, I looked at it yesterday and was filling things out. I have more isk in potential BP0s and BPCs then I have on hand :) So, for me to get a loan of say 350 million....would be tuff :)
I like the idea and I would definitely like to see what some faction loot would be put up for as collateral.
