The Proposed Investor/s:

• Is an investor, not a lender.
• Invests directly into projects and assets, taking a direct ownership interest.
• We generally take no form of security over an asset, which normally means no mortgage, charge, loan or lien.
• We are a passive investor and do not seek to actively participate in the operations of assets or control the board of asset operating companies.
• We do not sell financial services or products to third parties.

The investment can provide an opportunity to retrieve significant capital tied up in passive, low growth assets that provide marginal returns, and to use those funds in more profitable areas. Assets sold to us can then be leased back for long periods at relatively low rates. The increased liquidity realised through our investment can improve ratings and credit standing with lenders and suppliers. Often a leaseback by a rated party keeps the asset off balance sheet and is viewed more favourably by rating agencies rather than a similar amount of debt added to existing liabilities. This structure is also sharia compliant. Our approach can also be utilised by governments to enable them to focus on service delivery, rather than locking up funds through ownership of low commercial yield assets.

Marae Online is an online community and mega-portal into Māoridom.

Our Content Management System called (M.O.C.O.S) or Marae Online Community Operating Systemwill provide a sophisticated platform for our marae, schools, businesses, clubs and homes enabling seamless communication.

An Internet Portal as defined by IBM, is “a single integrated, ubiquitous, and useful access to information (data), applications and people.” A portal may look like a web site, but it is much more.

A portal “knows” the individual using it and changes with the individual; it is an individual’s personal assistant or proactive agent, ready to act on his or her behalf. Horizontal portals, often referred to as “megaportals,” target the entire Internet community or world wide web. Providers of megaportals hope that individual users go to their site, first to access the rest of the Internet.
