@ Russianruk

It sounds like you need help with running your country instead of getting money try fixing your economy first.

Hello Russianruk,

I've taken a look at your country and I noticed a few things. Here are a few pointers:

1. Up your social security to at least 70%
2. get rid of all of your national industries and get good profitable ones for them instead. CEO corps are the best if you can get them but at least get rid of the national industries. They are the worst you can have so keep their numbers low.
3. get rid of all of your defensive army units. You are under protection and don't need them so don't waste money on them
4. Lower the quality of goods orderd for your country to 120 (if you have already done this sorry for the comment)
5. Make sure every corp has 100% hiring. You'll make more money with 10% unemployment and 121% functioning corps then with 1% unemployment and 101% functioning corps.
6. Lower your taxes and raise your profit share. Something in the area of 20-60.

What will these thing

The Republic of Cloudy is doing well. Hitting the country with a wrecking ball by closing corps would be a waste of investments. Instead, it's better to make the corps more profitable by increasing their product quality.

1. A higher supply quality would provide a higher product quality. The goal is a product quality of at least 270.

2. The state and national corps could achieve a higher product quality as public corps. If I'm not mistaken, the maximum product quality is 296 for public country corps.

3. The country would earn even more by selling public country corps to CEOs. Then their product quality can go up to 330. More importantly, the country would earn resource payments from the CEOs. Those payments tend to be higher than what the country would earn as profits if it kept those corps as state or national corps.

Regarding IPOs, it helps to lower the profit transfer to zero. That will increase the market valu

This is the beauty of this game. Two people look at the same country and both see something different.

Madoff has a few good points on which I would like to comment.

First your 2 point. I have ceo's and countries and I've read the game 'rules' and I can't find nor see where you got the idea from that state and national corps can achieve a higher quality of products then a ceo. Could you please explain this to me?
The quality of the corps of my ceo's is a lot higher then that of my country corps. And my public ceo's get an even higher quality.

Point 1.
You're right that in the long term higher supllies for corperations means that they will produce better products. but most of his corps simply can't afford getting better quality goods without some serious investments and i'm not sure that those are worth it.

point 3.
You're right, that would earn him more cash. Th

Regarding point 1, I disagree with your view that the corps cannot afford higher quality supplies. Improving the supply quality of the corps is a cost-effective way to improve product quality. The foundation of the corps' mechanics is that higher quality products are usually more profitable.

Regarding point 2, I never said
"that state and national corps can achieve a higher quality of products then a ceo."

Nor did I suggest that IPOs are easy. Nor that he can IPO all of his state and national corps immediately.

My advice is that he focus on improving product quality. That is a step-by-step process. The final step is CEO ownership of the corps that have had an IPO. No, I didn't explain every excruciating detail of an IPO.

I trust that russianruk is smart enough to figure out some of the details about improving pre-IPO profitability. Yes, that includes achieving high production and hiring. Yes
