A Geographical Indication is a sign used on goods that have a specific geographical origin and possess qualities or a reputation due to that place of origin. Most commonly, a geographical indication consists of the name of the place of origin of the goods. Agricultural products typically have qualities that derive from their place of production and are influenced by specific local geographical factors, such as climate and soil. In business valuation analysis, a Geographical Indication qualifies as an intangible asset because it is recognisable, separable and the potential value can be accurately measured. Intangible assets are a class of assets without physical form (such as a building) which generate economic benefits to the owners. To estimate the fair market value of a Geographical Indication, business valuation analysts apply techniques under the market, asset and income valuation methods.
