For this DLC when an company is owed 100% by the founder/ceo revert it to a private corporation from public.

I fully agree with this. If one person or entity owns 100% of a companies stock there should be an option to take it private.

For the AI it needs to automatically go private.smith121362 wrote: Sun Sep 09, 2018 5:10 pm I fully agree with this. If one person or entity owns 100% of a companies stock there should be an option to take it private.

No, it does not need to. In game it is much cheaper and easier to purchase private company than public one.williammgary1 wrote: Mon Sep 10, 2018 7:28 pmFor the AI it needs to automatically go private.smith121362 wrote: Sun Sep 09, 2018 5:10 pm I fully agree with this.

When an AI company has 100% ownership the AI company should immediately and automatically considered a Private Company so that the option to acquire the private company becomes available.

In the real world, if one shareholder owns 100% of the company, the company will immediately be delisted. All countries requires a listed company to maintain a certain amount of public float. There's no point having a company listed in an exchange when no shares can be bought.megapolis wrote: Mon Sep 10, 2018 11:25 pmNo, it does not need to.

Agreed with this, there should be a threshold of say 75%-80% max like in real life.

I agree with this as well. It's something that sorely needs to be fixed for mid to late game.

Re: Make Companies private when 100% equity owned
I completely agree with this, many times have I been trying to acquire a company to just stay in limbo because they wont issue new shares and keep asking to buy mines. I believe if the AI is pushing to keep itself fully owned by itself it should keep itself as a private company as there is no reason to buy someones stock if it can't be aggressively acquired or strategically invested in.
