PRESS RELEASE- Imperial Bank Announces Dividend

PRESS RELEASE

Imperial Bank Floated from 1st Imperial Privateers

The 1st Imperial Bank, the sole financial instiution operating on Shartak, has listed on the Shartak Stock Exchange, disaggregating from its parent, the 1st Imperial Privateers Regiment.

"We felt that the useful non-combatant operations of the Bank were inconsistent with our twin goals of pillaging colonist towns and conquer of native peoples," said Major- General Timothy Trust, co-leader of the Imperials.

Colonel Ella Chen, commander of shipwreck operations of the Imperials, added, "The listing of the Bank under an independent board of directors ensures its legitimacy and transparency, as well as allows the troops to continue to set fire to huts, murder people in their sleep, and impress native women with our pulse-powered advocaat rifles."

The disaggregation has not resulted in the Imperials dropping from their lead as the largest clan on Shartak, still with more active members that the Scurvy Crew of the Hellborn Strumpet.

"We don't envisage this as being a f***ing impediment to f***ing operations!" said Colonel Nowherehowdy, commander of New Amsterdam operations of the Imperials. "In fact, the non-combatant branch managers were more of a f***ing liability given they were obvious targets of retribution! Silly c****!"

Ibn al Xuffasch, York branch manager of the Bank, said, "The 1st Imperial Bank operates branches in Raktam, Durham, Derby and York, all within a square of the trader's huts in each centre, and are there for loans, deposits with 10 gold coin interest payments, and inter-branch transfers. The combined gold coin assets of the 1st Imperial Bank exceed that of any other organisation on Shartak Island. This complete independence has lead to a very exciting time in our Bank's history."

Time to declare a dividend.

The following accounts, each being over 100 GCs, get 20 GCs:

1. Scavengers Community Account
2. Arminius
3. Crowjane (she only has 99GCs but we'll say its 100GCs to be fair)
4. Know-Nothing
5. Rozen

And the following accounts, with over 25GCs each get 10 GCs:

1. Zeff
2. Derry
3. Mother of Armadox

[Armadox the Butcher]

The money funds the war, The Scavengers tahnk the bank for the excess, and the bank of Raktam will be safe as long as it is allied to the Scavengers.

[FirstAmongstDaves]

You're welcome.

Someone has removed the Scavengers symbol from the Raktam branch which you might want to fix at some stage.

In other news, efforts to get the Wiksik branch up and running were foiled when Jesus and MahaROGa decided to eviscerate the courier delivering the cash.

If you would have killed me this would not have happened. Heartless man.

Stupid emo natives, ruining how the world works. They're lazy, too - they don't even want to kill themselves, they want someone to do it FOR them. And naturally, nobody's going with my idea to just Napalm the whole island and see what we find under all that jungle. I bet there's Gold.

If I'd been given the chance to kill you I would have! I was only an hour or two away from waking up.

Anyway, Wiksik isn't far from Igoban's current position. Which reminds me, I need to start a thread on this.

[FirstAmongstDaves]

Operations in Raktam have been temporarily suspended given the current civil disorder in the area.

[Schloss Ritter]

And here I chose Raktam for my native character since it was supposed to be the quiet and safe village.   

Maybe I'll go and trade with outsiders somewhere...


Edit: and are you going to close the York branch too because of "civil unrest" there?

[FirstAmongstDaves]

Raktam operations have reopened, as further attacks on our staff didn't eventuate.

Yorks' branch is currently unaffected by the Guild's actions in York, so we see no need to suspend operations yet.

A new branch has opened in Dalpok. Details shortly.

[Rob Zombie]

are any more dividends being handed out? 
i just opened up an account with Rob Zombie, a separate acount from Rozen. 50gc, clan account for the Derby Privateers.

[Foo]

Mother of Armadox wants to mention that she gave 70 gold coins to the Raktam representative.

[FirstAmongstDaves]

Yes, its recorded in our bank records and in fact she earned interest on it with the last dividend announcement.

A new dividend will be announced in early February.

Also coming soon: the Shartak Financial Times.
