InterGalactic Banking Clan

The InterGalactic Banking Clan was a commerce guild that formed into a pseudo-faction during the years after the Fallen War.

Before Armada
While it served as a commerce guild before the Fallen War, the IGBC morphed into a pseudo-faction that spread its influence across several star systems. While it still acted as a commerce guild throughout the galaxy, the star systems under its faction-like control adopted their own set of laws and commerce protocols laid out by the IGBC.

A Galaxy Divided
With the IGBC interested in protecting its financial interests, the IGBC chairman, Zhin Vakia, attended the galactic meeting on Coruscant that was hosted by Emperor Palpatine. Later on, the IGBC attempted to integrate the Ishtari Empire into the galactic currency system, but talks quickly broke down and were later abandoned.
