Entering into agreements with GVL is made simpler for producers

This goes hand in hand with significant steps to facilitate evidence submissions. “We wanted to make it as simple as possible to our producers to assign their rights to us. In addition to that, we wanted to adapt the requirements for the initial issuance of the label code to the circumstances of the track-based remuneration for rights ownership. As a consequence, we have slimmed down the process”, explains Dirk Löwenberg, Head of the Rights Holders’ Service division for producers & promoters.
