Abstract: Prospective variable early-payment rebates under a purchase agreement are expressed as income streams to a buyer through use of a rebate calculation process, and these flows are monetized and secured. The rebates are based on contractual obligations between a buyer and a seller. The rebates are “performance based” in that the earlier a buyer pays off its account with a supplier, the larger the rebate. These monetized rebates form a new asset class that can be sold just like any other financial instrument. The buyer, based on predictable cash outflows, can receive income from these future rebates sooner, allowing it to potentially fund large-scale projects. A computer system determines the amount of the rebates, rates them based on the likelihood that they will be received, and determines their current value. Investors purchase these instruments, in the form of bonds or notes, and receive payment in principle and interest. A third-party issues financial instruments, secured by the rebates.
