Community Banking Guidelines
The key to survival this round is for the richer captains to make loans to other worthy captains. Here are the five guidelines I suggest when deciding which loan to make (or take).
Know Your Customer
Don’t risk your ship
The time to call-in a bad loan is before you make it.
Spread Your Risks
Develop a relationship
Know Your Customer. When you make a loan, you are entering a relationship. Make sure this is a person you are comfortable spending some time with.
Don’t risk your ship. You should only loan out funds that can be spared. Your first obligations is to your ship and your crew.
The time to call-in a bad loan is before you make it. No one “owes” anyone financing. If you have a bad feeling about a deal, don’t do the deal. You’ll both be better off.
Spread Your Risks. Life is uncertain. Bad things happen to even the best people and ideas. Especially in Charybdis. Better to enter several small transactions than one big one.
Develop a relationship. If this is just about money, you’re Unizone. Work together. Everyone has something to contribute – be creative. We call this “community banking” for a reason.
