It seems quite obvious that there are MANY politicians all over the world. There are probably far more politicians than companies traded on all the world markets. It's therefore safe to assume that PolitiCap's database would have to be enormous to keep track of all the politicians: Introduce ECN's or Electronic Commerce Networks!
