Exchange

The Exchange
The Exchange is a criminal organization that dealt in smuggling, extortion, and bounty hunting. it was active 4000 years BBY. it was active in many plants and employed notorious bounty hunters such as Calo Nord. it was headed by Davik Kang, the crime lord of thr plant taris until his death by Revan a drak jedi. soon after that the power struggle for control over the exchange was over by the victory of Goto.

Goto's actions, while illegal, did aid the Republic in rebuilding itself. Its smuggling ring caused the deaths of destabilizing persons or organizations, developed unoffical profits for entire sectors, and strengthened Republic worlds that would otherwise be poor and ignored. Believing also that the major source of the Republic's problems revolved around the Jedi/Sith conflict, it also enacted bounties for live Jedi and Sith. Many bounty hunters simply killed Jedi and Sith instead of capturing them, but the outcome remained: less Jedi or Sith to fight against each other meant less fighting peroid.

The Exchange was one of the most powerful criminal organizations that operated throughout much of the Outer Rim Territories in that time. The shadowy group was led by an even more mysterious entity called the Compeer, with a command structure that included individual crime lords controlling profitable worlds. The only way to be accepted into this elite group is to be nominated by several other crime lords. Controlling the world of Taris was Davik Kang. His organization specialized in smuggling contraband goods, dealing in slave trade and extortion.
