Monetisation

In a monetisation transaction, the government is basically transferring revenue rights to private parties for a specified transaction period in return for upfront money, a revenue share, and commitment of investments in the assets.

Real Estate Investment Trusts (Reits) and Infrastructure Investment Trusts (Invits), for instance, are the key structures used to monetise assets in the roads and power sectors.

These are also listed on stock exchanges, providing investors liquidity through secondary markets as well.

While these are a structured financing vehicle, other monetisation models on PPP (Public Private Partnership) basis include:

Operate Maintain Transfer (OMT),

Toll Operate Transfer (TOT), and

Operations, Maintenance & Development (OMD).

Greenfield vs Brownfield Investment

Greenfield Project:

It refers to investment in a manufacturing, office, or other physical company-related structure or group of structures in an area where no previous facilities exist.

Brownfield investment:

The projects which are modified or upgraded are called brownfield projects.

The term is used for purchasing or leasing existing production facilities to launch a new production activity.
