I invite you to join our in-game channel EGSEx if you'd like to meet with us and check out the stock market we already have going. Also if theres any information you'd like about specific things in this area feel free to e-mail me or contact me or others in game. We are more than happy, we are eager in fact, to give you information so that you can make good decisions in regards to future changes.
Good luck.

As a heavily active participant through the EGSEx channel, the stock markets, and running 3 public funded ventures I also encourage you to speak to us and get to know the other side of Eve. We are a relatively niche sector of the community, with approximately 400 people active in the stock markets in both buys and sells. But over the past 1.5 years we have been doing this, it has all been going well beyond the boundaries of this game.
We have created our own stock market
We have designed and implemented templates for business plans
We have RL business analysts in Eve who actively do the same job in-game.
We have brokers, auditors, public ran corporations running via the API, shares, bonds, mutual funds, futures funds, the whole works.
This has all been designed from the very basic foundation CCP has allowed of us, that of being able to distribute shares and the likes.
But Ionia is spot on, there is no way to track share trades, no way to perform a secure share trade, no way to lockdown shares to the corporate wallet, thereby forcing directors to vote on removal of shares from a mutual fund's ownership.
I calculated the approximate value of the stock/shares market last week, by totalling the value of around 75% of these public corporations, and this reached 2 trillion isk. We may be a minority in some people's eyes, but we offer something fresh to Eve, we offer the alternative for those in the Economic sector. Reading your interviews with various 3rd party organisations, would make one believe you hadn't heard of us before as more focus was put onto the value drop on a 450mm Railgun in the market.
I urge you to come and join us in the EGSEx channel, even with an alt to monitor if you like. Of peruse through the Market Discussions forums which house virtually the entire financial sector of Eve. There truly is a wealth of knowledge that can be obtained from these two locations, and we haven't seen a dev post in the Market Discussion forum now for close to a year.
Thanks for your time
