How to increase corporation value?

Some of my best performing corporations have decreasing value (e.g. from 199B to 184B) although they are still making profit. I once increased the number of corporations by 4 and this started the decline. Why is this so even after I close some companies?

Is it bad to follow the 'min. no. of corporations' and fulfill the requirement? I find that if I do so there will be shortage of workers.

Thanks!

You should always include Country name & World for help. In general, keep all corps. running at 100% employment and try for 90%+ Country employment.

My corporations are close to full employment and Country employment is about 94%. I don't know how to further boost it.

Increasing corporation value is generally not a goal by itself. Are you planning on an IPO?

Checking your country, one major factor the corporations need is a general improvement of your welfare index. This is found on your social page. To have a very good economy, it should be 120+. Details about the welfare index can be found in the game docs under "indexes".

You can increase the value of a corp by setting profit transfer to 0. If it's a private corp, you also can add cash to increase the value. It also helps to increase the value of its supplies, although you don't want to get carried away with that one.

But corp values are strange things. Sometimes they go up or down for no obvious reason. Different aspects of the game have a voodoo math.
