- "As I said, the vaults are empty."
- ―Rush Clovis, after their discovery of the Banking Clan's current state of bankruptcy
The Ryloth Vent[2] was a subsidiary to the InterGalactic Banking Clan,[1] a highly important commerce guild to the galaxy.[3] By 19 BBY,[4] the final year of the Clone Wars between the Galactic Republic and Separatist Alliance, the company was rendered bankrupt alongside several other Banking Clan subsidiaries.[2]
Sometime later, the Ryloth Vent's state of bankruptcy was discovered by Senator Padmé Amidala of the Republic and Rush Clovis, a member of the Banking Clan, during their mission to[2] the Outer Rim world[5] of Scipio to uncover suspected embezzlement within the Banking Clan. Upon discovery of the state the companies were in, Senator Amidala expressed that Supreme Chancellor of the Republic, Sheev Palpatine, must be informed of the Banking Clan's situation, brought about from the embezzlement.[2] The Ryloth Vent shared its name with the Outer Rim planet Ryloth.[6]
