To use invest make, or invest list, the leader of the guild or religion must also be in the guild/religion bank room.
Type 1 - Low risk
Low risk investments have the lowest chance of failure, but produce the
least amount of profit. They are more secure investments, such as
investing in a new shop that's opening. Profits are almost bound to be
made, but the chances of making a fortune here are slim.
Type 2 - Medium risk
Medium risk investments lie somewhere in the middle of the road as far
as risk and reward. There is a higher chance of failure here, but if
the investment is successful, your return will generally be greater. Medium investment examples would be investing in trade between two or more empires, or buying and selling goods of your own outside of shops.
Type 3 - High risk
High risk investments allow for greater profits, but you also stand a
greater chance of losing all of the money invested. If it does work out
though, this is where you will make your fortune. Profit margins for
high risk investments could allow you to double, or even triple your
money. An example of a high risk investment would be mining ventures,
which often dig for months or years without finding anything worthwhile.
