Answer 2

By 1690, the Company had trading centres (known as 'factories') all along the West and East coasts of India. The main centres were at Madras, Calcutta and Bombay. The Company started to protect its trade with its own armies and navies - very different from most companies today. London also became an important trading centre, where goods were imported, exported and transferred from one country to another. The Company would have liked to pay for all its import goods with silver, but traders in England wanted them to export English manufactured goods.
