Financing Options

Few organizations appreciate the full scope of flexibility available to them in terms of their trademarks, patents and other intellectual property.  One of the most overlooked areas is the value of IP when used as collateral.  Lenders, venture capitalists, investment bankers and other sources of financing are increasingly likely to consider the value of IP independent from the value of other assets on the firm's balance sheet when performing their due diligence.

For example, key patents and well-known trademarks are being used to secure loans.  Also, ongoing royalty payments are being securitized in asset-backed debt instruments.  These are just two examples of the many options available to owners of valuable intangible assets.

IPmetrics can help you understand the value of your assets as used in this context and put you in touch with the sources of financing that will best meet your specific needs.
