Find answers to common questions about Authenta Invest’s copyright investment strategy and technology platform.
Authenta Invest focuses on acquiring ten to twenty-five year exclusive administration rights to music copyrights, rather than outright ownership. This capital-efficient approach enables portfolio construction at 2- 4x annual royalty multiples, compared to 10- 20x for full acquisition, targeting 14-25% annual returns through technology-enabled royalty optimization.
The fund will operate with a target of $1 billion or more in capital, aiming to deploy capital across 764,000 to 1.5 million musical works. This represents 1.47-2.94% of the global ISWC database, creating a material market position for enhanced negotiation leverage with digital service providers.
The fund operates through Wyoming Series LLC structures, providing asset-level liability protection with bankruptcy-remote status for each portfolio series. Wyoming’s recognition of copyrights as UCC general intangibles enables secured lending and collateralization, while integration with Wyoming’s Special Purpose Depository Institution framework ensures regulated custody.
