    Freedom for creators! Excitement for investors!

    Royalty Bank is Japan's first platform for trading royalties generated from music, comics, novels, movies, photos, and other types of content.

     

    Our mission is to raise large amounts of funds so that creators can create more freely. Additionally, we provide fans and culturally knowledgeable investors with exciting investment options. By building a sound and transparent bridge between creators and investors, we promote further revitalization of the content industry.

  • ■What is royalty investment?

    An investment style that has never been seen before: investing in the royalties generated by culture.

    While stocks and government bonds are the most common investments, our market deals with the royalties generated by various expressions of culture such as music and comics.

     

    When fans/investors find their favorite catalogs (collections of works) and invest in them, the money goes to the creators/rights holders, who are then free to spend the money they receive. The fan/investor will receive regular royalties, like dividends, over a period of time from these catalogs

     

    In addition, fans/investors can aid in increasing the value of a work by listening to music via subscription services, karaoke, reading comics, or recommending them to their friends, thus contributing to royalty income, creating a win-win situation.

    There are various advantages for both creators/rights holders and fans/investors.

    broken image

    For

    creators / rights holders

    1. Gain access to a large sum of money now, rather than in small increments in the future.
       

    2. You can use the funds in any way you wish, such as to refresh creative activities or to take a break.
       

    3. The rights (royalties and profit participation rights) will automatically return to you at the end of the contract period, without transferring any licensing rights inherent in the rights.

    broken image

    For

    fans / investors.

    1. You can directly support your favorite creators in the form of an investment.
       

    2. With prices starting from 1,000 yen per lot, you can buy and sell as many as you like.
       

    3. Since royalties (dividends) are considered to be unrelated to the general economy, it is a perfect alternative investment option.

  • Royalty investment flow for fans and investors

     
    The actual transaction is so simple, as you can see below!
    1

    Select a Catalog

     

    A catalog is a collection of works. What works are included, how many works are included, what rights the royalties are based on, how much royalties were earned in the past, how long you can receive the royalties, and many other factors vary from catalog to catalog. Make selections until you are satisfied.

    2

    Make your Purchase

     

    After creating an account, you can set up an e-wallet and put a deposit in it. You can buy catalogs within the limits of your deposit. You can check your transaction record at any time on My Page.

    3

    Wait for dividends or sell

     

    Royalty payments as dividends are usually made twice a year. You will be notified when it is time to pay dividends and then be able to deposit the money into your e-wallet. You can also sell the catalogs you have purchased on the secondary market. Of course, you can also buy more.

    • Catalog: A "bundle of rights" that combines multiple contents into one, similar to a "stock" in stocks.
    • Royalty: A fee for each use of a work. Royalties are paid for each use of the work, and can be used in various ways, including subscription music, karaoke, commercials, movies, and for comics, animation and character merchandising.
    • The number of units: One share of stock is called one unit in Royalty Bank. The total number of units is predetermined for each catalog.
    • The market is divided into two; a primary market, where rights holders are traded at the time of listing, and a secondary market, where rights are traded among investors.
