Hi! I have question about the standings.

Does NPC corporation standings have any benefits on industrial and/or trading activities?

Does NPC faction standings have any benefits on industrial and/or trading activities?

At 5.0 all L4 Agents for that faction become available to you (4.0 with certain Corporations)
At 6.67 you are no longer subject to the refining Equipment Tax with that corporation
The higher your standings toward an NPC entity the lower the broker fee is in their stations. As an example, with a faction and corp standing of 10, the broker fee is reduced to 0.185%, saving you more than 1% through the buy and sell process

Your numbers are outdated ... the minimum NPC broker fee is 2% now, 2.5% without standing but max skills. In Citadels the fee is set by the player owner.

There is no effect of standings towards manufacturing and research. The job costs here are determined by the system cost index, which is higher in systems with more industry activity. In NPC stations a 10% tax comes on top.
