Novus Officium Ordus

Novus Officium Ordus


The Novus Officium Ordus (New Service Order) is a Bank created by myself and Asura. Here lies the policies that will be instituted in this Bank, and there is no fine-print.

Policy
A. Any who wish to deposit money into a savings account may do so, and they will recieve a 2% return rate that will be compounded once every two weeks.
-----1. Any who deposit money will then be held accountable for trading tariffs.
----------a. These tariffs are 10gp per trade made. All who have savings accounts must pay these tariffs.
----------b. Trading tariffs apply to all trades in which you use money in your bank account, including but not limited to the Trading Center, the Magickery, the Weapons Shop, the Pawn Shop and the Armoury.

B. Any who wish to borrow money may do so, and they will pay 7% interest, compounded weekly.

C. Any who wish to purchase a bond may do so. Bonds have a 4% return rate compounded every two weeks.
------1. Bonds are placed in a different category because they have a set time. However, if you wish, you can ask for your bond early, but you will only receive the heretofore accumulated amount. For example, if you gave 50gp, you would receive 54 GP in four weeks. However, if you asked for your money in three weeks, you would only receive 52 GP, because the two week compounding period had not been reached.

Post here whether you wish to deposit money, etc. These rules are subject to change.

Insurance Policy
There is a full reimbursement policy if by any chance the Novus Officium Ordus fails.

In Response to People's Doubts
Currently, Asura is the main backer to this operations, and he has generously donated a large undisclosed sum of money, and I too will help pay for interest rates. The Weapon Delivery Service will also provide some money, and it is run with no cost. As soon as we get some people to make loans, then the bank will make us some profits.

Where is the money to run these operations coming from? Where is the money used to pay the interest rates drawn from? Also, your specifications on bonds beyond interest rates are murky.

Edit: They offered the service. I want to know so I can use it, since it is after all currently running.

geez they are just starting out, let them figure it out and then tell us. pacience is a virtue ^^

I will create an account based on the specifications that Silk has given me of the service. I require however, that policy be changed as little as possible and that changes should be PMed to me like normal banks that require customer consent for continued business after a change in the terms of the agreement. I know there is no fine print and that you have been open to me, though, so I will trust this.

7440 GP

Question: If you withdraw money, would the Compounding Date change?

Response to Lugia: No. The compounding day stays permanent, and it corresponds with the day you make an account.

I'd like to start an account. I'll deposit 600GP for now.

Seeing as how I'm not planning to use it, I'll store my other 500GP as well.

I am going to give 2,000 Gp to Kiwi's account.

*Kiwi walks into the bank with a team of several penguins wearing shades, all carrying small metal boxes. They all pile the boxes beside the bank counter and stand there to guard it faithfully.*

I'm depositing 176124.06 GP.

TOTAL: 185564.06 GP

edit: Correction, it went up.

*Another armed penguin steps into the bank with a bag and places it upon the pile with the rest of the money.*

Another 500 GP.

TOTAL: 186064.06 GP
