Well, perhaps one of the biggest differences is the fact that the Directorate is pure evil. The Iron Bank can definitely be nasty, but not on the level of the Directorate. They have never purposefully done anything good, at least not knowingly. They commit every known form of methodical injustice upon others in the name of profit. Probably another difference is the competition within the Directorate. It is not one big corporate overlord, but rather a conglomeration of them. They don't even technically have a standing military. Each security fleet and acquisition army is a company in its own right, one which other companies contract to do work.

I don't know if that would be viable.
