Internet has become an important part of our everyday life, as it has created new opportunities for business and offered new ways of social gathering. A very critical topic concerning decision making by online transactions is trust issue. This paper presents a formal representation of a sample e-commerce environment with communicating agents, including their properties and assets. Further, we describe rules of an investment game that agents are playing. We propose two different scenarios. In the first one, agents' investment decisions are ad hoc. In the second one, there is trust management system deployed that affects the agents' decisions. Based on developed simulation tool, we investigate the proposed scenarios. We show that with introducing trust management system agents filter out bad agents and only good ones prosper. We also discuss other evident effects of trust management system on agents and their final investments values based on simulations results.
