The '''Merchants Guild''' is [[Necromunda (planet)|Necromunda]]'s economic powerhouse, that is composed of dozens of individual Guilds guilds that administrate the constant flow of vital supplies (and of course, credits) into the world's [[Hive]]s.{{Fn|1}}
Each Guild is composed of thousands of merchant families, more commonly known as [[Guilder]]s, who have been granted charters by Necromunda's [[Planetary Governor]], Lord [[Helmawr]], that authorizes them to exclusively handle certain vital resources the [[Hive World]] possesses. Because of this, the power of individual Guilds vary from Hive to Hive, often depending on the local resources that are available to them.{{Fn|1}}
