If that is what you are proposing, why are you bringing it to ARIN
at this time? What you need to do is to get the members of the
financial services industry to agree among themselves on a single
party to represent their interests to the RIR community. This
new entity would have, as its customers, the members of the
finacial services industry. They, presumably, would all be legally
bound to only use the services of this "stovepipe" services group
to manage their network addressing requirements. If such a group
were to be formed, I have no doubt that ARIN would be happy to
work with them to meet the needs of their customers. I honestly
do not see anything unique or different here. It looks very much
like normal ISP startup to me.
