You can borrow from me. 10% interest per 24 hours.
Initial fee is 100m to cover alliance expense and 3 turn lost production.

There is a suggestion board, and this has already been suggested many times before your post.

The search feature is helpful.

"Borrowing" from a player in a tag using the Alliance Safe Space sounds like an interesting strategy.

A bond market would be very interesting tbh.

Have a flat 10% coupon each 24 hours, on bonds that last up to 7 days(or redeemable at choice) and let players buy and sell contracts worth $1m. If you can't pay your stock, military and tech is force sold to the game, and if that isn't enough your country is barred from the bond market for the remainder of the round and your country loses half of what it produces until its payed back in full.

Given how adverse everyone is to actually doing math this is unlikely to be popular. So let's do it!

Anything to increase in game complexity is a good thing. Opens up more strategies, more pitfalls, and more interesting game play.

I was playing with this idea for a while, but moreso the idea of creating a bonds market where people could buy and sell them. Gets complicated when you factor in what happens if countries don't have the capital to pay it back or if the county dies after selling a bond to an investor etc.

That's the risk of the market!

If you can't choose who's bond you buy it's kinda weird to take a counterparty risk.

The other thing is if the market is in any way illiquid it's going to be a disaster on solo servers because either due to luck or due to team play a player will get a huge advantage due to buying or selling bonds that are not priced right.

This would perhaps not be a problem if a solo server had 1000 active players, and 5% of those knew roughly how to price a bond. But now idk... It would be problematic.

Game would have to guarantee the bonds through a risk based fee, some sort of mock credit rating.
