"We paid out an unprecedented £943.6 Million in royalties to songwriters, composers and music publishers in 2023..." –#MusicBizMember PRS for Music has released its full financial report for 2023. 💰 Check out the report here: bit.ly/3QZDCXZ
We paid out an unprecedented £943.6 Million in royalties to songwriters, composers and music publishers in 2023 and collected a massive £1.08 billion in revenues, more than a 12% (£120.9 million) increase on 2022. Our cost-to-income ratio fell to a new low of just 9.2%, down from 9.3% the previous year. This important measure shows that our targeted investments in people, technologies and services, are delivering significant returns on investment for members. Our CEO Andrea C. Martin, ICD.D said of the results: 'Our remarkable performance in 2023 is a testament to the team’s hard work behind the scenes of the music industry. We're not just surpassing financial milestones at the lowest cost-to-income ratio amongst our peers; we're orchestrating a significant shift in the music business. My vision to ascend to a billion-pound society in royalties paid out isn't just a goal—it reflects our commitment to music creators worldwide. With our focus on innovation and strategic partnerships, including the recent pioneering Project Nexus, we're shaping the future of our business and redefining how rights are managed globally. For 110 years we have existed to ensure that every music creator receives fair compensation for their artistry, wherever and whenever their music is played.'
