The Empera Crown Citadel Bank is the reserve bank of the Orwyn and Demagan Empires. With a total of 2,513,000,000 active users of the Empera Crown and growing everyday. It is a subsidiary of the Royal Imperial Holding Corporation and stock in the bank is owned by the Orwyn and Demagan governments with a slight majority of 55% of the stock held by the Orwyn Government verses the 45% held by the Demagan Government.
The current Chairman of the bank is Stefan Goldschmidt he has a long background in finance after he received his doctorates in Economics and Business Administration, Stefan was entered into the service of the Royal Family of Orwyn as their Financial Administrator. Once the Orwyn and Demagan Empires formed their blood pact a central currency was not far off. Once the ECCB was formed Stefan quickly won the Chairmans position and has run the bank since.
The ECCB offers what can be argued to be the safest currency and accounts in the universe. Using a number of methods that make the ECCB the perfect choice for any nation, business, or individual of any technology level.
The system in use in Orwyn and Demaga involves a implant in the forearm that is readable by the sensors in place at business and around the nations by the DAEDALUS AI/VI system. This method has eliminated most shopping related crime. Along with this method there is kept in the reserves a equal amount of Physical Empera Crowns(PEC) should the DAEDALUS system fail.
Another use for the PEC are for the Imperial Armed Forces when they are on tours in foreign lands. The PEC system is just as safe as the electronic implant system and is recommended for those that have objections to the implant its self. The EC Note is minted in another universe because of the special resources available in only that universe as far as the Imperial Engineers Corps have been able to tell. The circle on the EC Note is a built in chip that produces a unique signal that changes bi-yearly and is managed at the ECCB. This allows for a accurate count of all EC Notes in circulation. The ink used to print the notes is the special resource found only in the other universe. The ECCB offers readers to merchants and governments that use the EC for mass scanning of bills to ensure they are genuine.
The ECCB its self is located on a space station in what is know as the Riftverse for security reasons. Transportation to the ECCB will be provided to those that require it.
When it comes to interest I apply it once a month as if its a year, but for the sake of my sanity I will not include interest in account updates, unless a withdraw is requested.
