Interspace Commerce seems to be just internal company of Valhalla Research(Ageira) and Monument Engineering(DSE)
Finally just small fix of infocard will solve the problem:
Interspace Commerce (IC) owned by the “Big Three” Liberty companies insures cargo carried within the colonies and into the Border Worlds.
Well, no, because;
capitalize a whole independent entity, Interspace Commerce
Independent, meaning they don’t own it any more, and have little to no input on it’s workings unless they have members on the corporate board, though that would be likely, at least to begin with.
@Moonhead;
Curious idea, merging the factions. Looking forward to seeing how it works out.

Remember te merger is only in the Rep Screen: e.g. instead of Liberty Navy and Liberty Police, there’s now Liberty Authorities. But in-space you still see them flying around as and [LPI]. Same for the other houses, and the companies mentioned.
Of course there’s some loss in diversity of the vanilla factions, but I wanna add quite a bunch of new factions, so I’m happy with any free ids_name slot. Also, I wanna kinda elaborate on existing factions, most of them are kinda flat. Each faction should be worthwhile to hang around with, but I don’t think many players would consider working for Rep with e.g. the Bundschuh, the Farmer’s Aliance or Synth Foods.

Disagree. In this case Independent means company do all stuff byself but under supervision.

If what you say is true, it means Liberty finances basically every large loan in the entirety of Sirius, which makes little sense.
The other houses tolerate IC’s presence, that wouldn’t happen if it were owned by a Liberty company. There is no way companies like Samura would allow their cargo to be insured by a Liberty company.

Who said this (except you)? Quote even one phrase about it from pdf.
P.S. Where do you see “Samura” my Dear?

Come on guys, what does it matter! All you’re going to do is bounce of the walls for ten posts and end up right back where you started, none the wiser. It makes as much sense as farmers in spaceships.

Just Bobthemanofsteel talking about different thing.
I will not continue discussion moreover Moonhead got his answer -
i was not gonna get involved with this one but here we go.
Interspace Commerce was formed under a joint venture between Agiera and DSE. The idea being that IC would provide financing to any government or group that was/is looking for jumpgates or tradelanes. OR even parts to maintain them.
now IC was founded , in the scheme of things, a long time ago.
Now the impression i get is that since it’s founding IC has grown expontentially and is no longer under the umbrella of ether Agiera or DSE.
Now everyone knows IC was originally founded in Liberty. Now they have ‘Branches’ all over Sirius. Now roots put it as a Liberty Corp. But each branch is independent from the Head Office, but still pays ‘franchise fees’ as it were.
At least this is the way i would look at it. However i am sure both Agiera and DSE still to some extent have their hands still into IC. But basically leave them alone to run themselves
