The Mercenary Review and Bonding Commission, or MRBC is the Human Sphere-wide official registrar for all legal mercenary units operating within both the Inner Sphere and the Periphery (although not the Deep Periphery), replacing the earlier ComStar Mercenary Review Board. If a unit is not registered with the MRBC, it is considered to be an illegal mercenary unit, and therefore not subject to POW rights outlined under the Ares Conventions. The MRBC's headquarters was located on Outreach until it's decimation in the Jihad.

Unlike the ComStar review board, the MRBC is intended to be a neutral organization, a jointly administered committee made up of representatives from each Great House, though ComStar retains an active seat as a legitimate employer of mercenary forces. Apart from controlling the registration of mercenary units, the MRBC also serves as a court of arbitration in contract disputes for either party.
