In S01, Ian Harmon told Nick about the royals' plan to grab world power, by having the verrat create global chaos that would drive frightened populations into the arms of political leaders who would promise order even at the cost of their liberty (said leaders being in the royals' pockets). BC's plan as explained to Nick by HW in S05 sounded so remarkably similar that one can't help wondering if maybe BC's leadership included some of the verrat.
Making such a plan work would require resources to shelter and support the chaos creators and politicians dedicated to carrying out the leadership grab. My guess is that what BC actually offered Renard was a seat at the table selecting and directing those politicians behind the scenes, if he could secure them Portland as a safe haven for their base of operations. Which might help explain why Renard appeared so high up on HW's BC org chart.
