The ISS Providence Outposts will provide both ISK dividends to shareholders, as well as over time see an increase in the ISK value of the shares. So as an investor, you will get a monthly income and have an asset to re-sell to other players.
The conservative estimate below shows how investing 200m ISK (10 Shares) in
ISS Providence Outpost Shares could increase your ISK from 200m to 300m in 6
months.
Only two actions required by you is to buy them and then sell them.
For a complete breakdown of this calculation, see end of this page.

You are used to investing, usually in units on the market, and would like to
put your cash somewhere that doesn't require you to run 10 jumps back and forth
to make deliveries. Apart from Tech II BPO’s there are not many opportunities
to do that in Eve. Have a read through the business
plan
Or perhaps you are saving up for the ‘next big thing’, but you haven
not got all the ISK yet. So, investing in oupost shares is smart, because you

- Demand for shares increase after the IPO is complete
- You sell your shares after 6months.
