Investment Returns
When buying these shares you invest in royalties generated by performance rights (songwriter’s share). Your investment will yield returns whenever any of the songs are played or performed. This could be on the radio, on TV, on stage, or streamed online on services such as Spotify, Tidal, Qobuz, YouTube and others. The investment includes revenue of upcoming royalties three years ahead. This is an investment with quarterly payouts that keeps on giving back until July 2027. Historical average yearly royalty return is € 1.36 per share.
“As an independent artist and entrepreneur, Tangy’s idea about giving debt-free loans against future royalties is a great tool for achieving more economic flexibility and ultimately more freedom to create. We need more free-thinkers and innovators like this in the business to replace the outdated machineries for artist rights and compensation that in my opinion have remained unchallenged for far too long.”
