Keeler Trust and Companies

The Keeler Trust and Companies (KT&C) was the largest Interstellar Consortium in the late 74th and early 75th Solar Century. Its headquarters are one the city of Hell on the planet Loki in the Sapphire-Loki system (10 527 Pegasus). Its Prime Chairman was Bernadette Keeler of Sapphire. 
=== History ===
The Keeler Trust and Companies emerged out of the former Keeler Trust. Keeler Trust was the consortium responsible for managing the wealth and investments of the Keeler family on the planet Sapphire. For hundreds of years, the Keeler Trust managed the family's sometimes enormous, often modest, holdings. 
When Bernadette Keeler took over management of the Keeler Trust in the Sapphirean Year 7675 (Solar Year7357), she gambled the family's fortune on ambitious investments on other worlds, betting heavily on growth in interstellar trade and markets. The gamble paid off and by Solar Year 7380 (Sapphirean Year 7700). That same year, she moved the headquarters to the planet Loki, where she had invested extensively in building the city of Hell. 
The Keeler Trust & Companies still maintains a headquarters in the city of New Cleveland, Sapphire, for managing investments and holdings local to the planet Sapphire. 
=== Holdings ===
The Keeler Trust and Companies has ownership or majority stakes in over 1,000 companies across 37 worlds, many through its commercial lending subsidaries: (Loki Inerstellar (Loki), Singularity Capital Assurance (Furlong), Greedy Pigs Financial Group (Guelph), Abera Capital (Bella La Cava), Ara Venture (Compass Alpha and Iota Arae) being the largest.) Its total assets are estimated at over 7 Trillion Sapphirean bucks (or equivalent); exceeding the GDP of many of the planets in the Perseus Quadrant.
=== Project Alpha ===
Project Alpha is a top-secret project possibly related to the colonization of a planet owned by the Keeler Trust and Companies.
