Strategic Partnerships

Publishing Royalties: In 2022, we acquired a significant minority stake in Primary Wave Music as part of a new strategic partnership to fund future music catalog purchases. Increasing demand for content from streaming services and social media make iconic music IP a scarce and irreplaceable asset. Primary Wave’s music catalog consists of over 800 Top-10 singles, more than 400 #1 hits and some of the most legendary names in music.

Consumer and SME Credit: In 2018, we created a strategic partnership with LCM Partners, a pioneer in the European Consumer and SME loan market. LCM's Credit Opportunities strategy has a stellar 24 year track record of well-diversified performing, rescheduled and non-performing loans.

We also hold exclusive partnerships with specialty finance, leasing companies, and original equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to provide financing at the point of sale for their customers, allowing us to specifically target lending into the granular asset and SME space. LCM’s Strategic Origination and Lending Opportunities (SOLO) strategy invests in asset-backed loans, real-estate financing, and renewables.
