The debt will just transfer to the enterprise or country.

While we're on the topic of making money...

For Enterprises:
I am finding it very difficult to make a profit. I chose industries with products in extreme shortages. I have invested in upgrades, messed with prices, performed strategy buying, raised salaries, etc. In the past three days, my enterprise has lost $0.17T without me spending any of that money. Yes, I've had to do transfers for upgrades, but the .17T does not account for that. My enterprise only has .07T left in cash.

Some corps make some profit, but all in all, I am netting a negative balance.

On a positive note, my share portfolio of other corporations has almost doubled in value.

I am guessing you are posting this b/c you are facing serious debt. I know this thread belongs in the help section, but I would like to get a discussion going on the dos and don'ts of corporation building for enterprises specifically. I realize there a

The problem with these corporations is that the welfare index is under 100%.
It means that with 100% hiring, they produce at 98% while the could produce at 115% or higher.

this is because of conditions in the country.
probably bad health care, or social security etc.
or maybe these countries have sold population.

Okay, thank you. I'll try moving some of my corporations into player-owned countries w/ low taxes and see how I do. And, I'll start paying attention to those stats from now on.

Andy, if this is the case as you say, then hows about improving C3 welfare to a minimum of 100.
They seem to average around 85% at the moment. Thats no good for CEOs building in them or countries that get de-regged with CEO corps in them. Hey, we have to put up with 30% tax as it is.

So what do you say...increased welfare for C3s???

I like this idea as a CEO also i find building in c3's currently less profitable, which is why i never or try not to build in c'3s this will help alot and will help enterprises expand.

If your value has doubled but you are facing cash shortages try some IPO's as a way
