Hey guys,

I've been manufacturing for about 1.5 months, skilling up and making some good money from T1 and T2 rigs.
I've started making T2 cruisers, but I need more working capital to keep my manufacturing lines filled.

I want to issue a 1 billion isk bond for 1-2 months with no collateral. (I don’t really have any assets that aren't industry, hauling or my main combat ship.)

I can share:

  • An EveBoard page showing my main has the right T2 Science and Industry skills
  • An EveAPI page showing my trading character has been buying inputs and selling T2 rigs and ships
  • Profit margin and isk-per-hour estimates
  • A breakdown of what the isk will be going into (buy orders for upcoming manufacturing, current manufacturing, sell inventory)
  • Plans for future fund-raising (T2 Battleships and Jump Freighters need a lot of capital)


What interest rates should I offer? 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%?
Is there anything else I can use to show investors that this is on the level?
Any other tips?

If an api confirms your claims and the amount is not much larger than what you are already handling, my guess is that you can get investors at 10%.

Agree with Cista - 10% is the standard for starter bonds.

There are two types of EVE player:

those who believe there are two types of EVE player and those who do not.

Nice - that's cheaper than I thought it'd be Smile

Thanks for the quick responses.
I’ll probably post a bond issue in the next day or two.

10% is the average/ideal rate for uncollateralized small loans any higher (close to 15%) and you risk sounding like a scam.
