Auditor

What is an auditor? It is a person that checks out your character's alts, market history, skills (through a full API key) and forum-posts to verify that you aren't lying and that you have included all the facts about your IPO or bond. Most investors think an audit is a mandatory step before they will invest, so it is advised to have an audit performed (preferably before posting your investment opportunity).

Do you want to become an auditor or are you wondering what an audit is? Read this:
