5 National Knowledge & Intellectual Property Management Taskforce 5 The Linkages Among IP Backed Transactions, Demand for IP and a Secondary Market 1) The sale of selected portions of the IP Portfolio creates a supply of new product for Wall Street investors who recognize the growing importance of value extraction in the knowledge economy 2) The ability to repackage and resell these packets of IP based on risk and reward creates a more specialized capability to manage and extract value from the IP. 3) The reliability of value standards and ratings of IP quality and credit worthiness provide a framework for continuing demand for IP that can be openly traded in America’s Capital Markets Hence the need to begin trading IP in a safe arena-the Taskforce arena.
