21 companies have been privatised in the last 2 months. A stock exchange has been opened called the Efladian Stock Exchange EfSE. This is a major shift from the last couple of years, where most of the buisnesses were under direct government control. The Minister for Economics and Trade and Commerce, Karl Grom from the LfE, announced that certain companies, i.e. Efladian Railways, HousingAssociation, etc., will remain in the hands of the government.
