CASE STUDY
Optimising Global Royalty Flows for a Legacy Catalogue
Managing royalties across global rights societies and territories can become fragmented and inefficient, particularly for established artists with complex catalogues.
In this case, we were engaged to streamline rights management and royalty tracking, improving data accuracy, reducing administrative overhead, and ensuring the artist’s income was fully aligned with how their music is consumed worldwide.

CHALLENGE
Fragmented data & inefficient collections
When Y Royalties reviewed the royalty setup for a legendary artist, it was noticed the revenue stream was not optimised for royalty collections.
Excessive administration costs and poor data quality were causing reduced collections and making it difficult for the artist to have a clear overview of their royalty income.
Excessive administration costs and poor data quality were causing reduced collections and making it difficult for the artist to have a clear overview of their royalty income.
SOLUTION
Streamlined global rights & tracking
By streamlining the way the artist’s music catalogue was registered and represented around the world, and aligning the setup more closely with how the artist’s music is consumed, we were able to simplify collection channels whilst aligning artist and publisher royalty structure.
RESULTS
Greater transparency, control & income
Our expertise enabled a groundbreaking industry-first agreement across rights holders.
By simplifying the licensing structure, we improved global admin costs and unlocked direct, reliable royalty data from the source, giving the client transparency, control, and increased earnings.
