Investing in Film: A Resilient Industry with Unmatched Global Potential

The UK film sector stands as a beacon of resilience and innovation — consistently delivering strong returns even when other industries falter. In 2021, after months of pandemic-induced closures, UK cinemas still recorded 74 million admissions and £602 million in box office revenue. These figures underscore not only the industry’s robustness but its ability to rebound faster and stronger than most.

What drives this resilience? A global, insatiable appetite for content.

From streaming platforms to traditional broadcasters and theatrical releases, the demand for compelling storytelling has never been greater. Audiences across the world are consuming more content than ever, creating a constant need for new films and series. This worldwide hunger presents filmmakers — and their backers — with vast opportunities for exposure, scalability, and high-margin distribution deals.

For investors, film offers more than just glamour. It offers multiple long-term revenue streams — from box office returns and streaming royalties to international licensing and merchandising. A single successful project can generate income for decades, making it one of the few investment vehicles capable of combining creative impact with sustainable financial performance.

It’s no surprise that a growing number of savvy investors are turning to the film industry — not only for the potential passive income and portfolio diversification but for the excitement of being part of a dynamic, influential, and culturally powerful global sector.

Film is no longer just entertainment. It’s a smart, forward-looking investment in a world hungry for stories.

Reinvesting Capital And Returns

Example of a £10k investment and where the royalty payments equal a conservative 25% annual return of the initial investment value + return (£12.5k) and where the first 2 royalty payments = 3 x the quarterly payment (this is a typical scenario when a film is first released). Thereafter the royalties would return an estimated 25% return per annum, paid quarterly. These figures are based on the re-investment of the capital and returns only (excluding the royalty payments) every 6 months.

What Are The Risks?

ALL INVESTOR FUNDS ARE PROTECTED IN 4 WAYS:

The security and protection of investor funds is a top priority for our production partners.

In an industry where trust and long-term relationships are everything, safeguarding the interests of our investors isn’t just a commitment — it’s a necessity. Our production partners understand that without the support of a strong investor community, along with valuable referrals and repeat business, the ability to consistently develop and deliver high-quality films and television content would not be possible.

That’s why every project is structured with transparency, accountability, and investor confidence in mind. From robust legal frameworks and insurance protections to collections agencies and secure SPV structures, every measure is taken to ensure that investor capital is not only respected but diligently protected.

Investors aren’t just contributors — they’re stakeholders in the creative journey. And our production partners are dedicated to ensuring their trust is continually earned, project after project.

Legally Binding Investor Protection Clause

In the highly unlikely event that an investor does not recoup their original investment following the release of the film, a legally binding clause ensures their capital is safeguarded.

Under this agreement, the full value of the initial investment will be automatically transferred — at no additional cost to the investor — into a new production. This process continues until the original investment has been fully recovered along with an additional 25% return.

This contractual obligation provides a powerful layer of security and confidence, reinforcing our commitment to delivering not just creative success, but financial results for every investor.

Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) are independent legal entities

Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) are independent legal entities established expressly to isolate a film project’s assets, liabilities, and financial activities from those of its parent company. In the film industry, SPVs deliver a disciplined, transparent framework for financing by:

Segregating Risk

Each project’s budget, contracts, and potential liabilities reside solely within the SPV — protecting both investors and the production company from cross‐project exposure.

Enhancing Transparency

Dedicated bank accounts, financial reporting, and audited statements ensure all cash flows, into and out of the SPV are clearly tracked.

Streamlining Investment

By packaging each production as a standalone entity, SPVs simplify subscription agreements, equity ownership and revenue‐share arrangements.

Facilitating Tax and Insurance Structuring

With assets and rights held within the SPV, producers can optimize tax incentives (e.g. film credits or rebates) and tailor insurance policies precisely to the needs of that one production.

In short, SPVs bring order, accountability, and confidence to film financing — ensuring each project is financed, managed, and reported on as a self‐contained venture.

All productions are fully insured through Tysers

All productions are fully insured through Tysers, one of the most respected and long-established providers of entertainment-specific insurance worldwide. This comprehensive coverage is designed specifically for the film and television industry, safeguarding every aspect of the production process.

For investors, this means a critical layer of protection is in place. From unforeseen delays to major disruptions, the insurance policy ensures that your capital is secure — no matter what challenges may arise during production.

In the unlikely event that a film is halted or cancelled, investors are entitled to a full refund. This gives you the confidence of knowing that your investment is not only well-managed, but fully protected from start to finish.
