Claire Hall spearheads global music rights finance at DLA Piper
Claire Hall, Partner and co-head of Structured Finance at DLA Piper, is driving a major global music rights finance practice. Her expertise in structured finance is central to orchestrating high-value transactions that bridge the gap between the music industry and global capital markets.
As the music industry continues its digital evolution, the valuation of intellectual property and music catalogues has become a focal point for institutional investors. Hall's leadership in this sector involves navigating the complex legal and financial frameworks required to manage and leverage music rights as a sophisticated asset class. This includes overseeing the intricate processes involved in securing royalty-backed financing and managing large-scale IP portfolios.
The practice at DLA Piper addresses the growing intersection of creative intellectual property and institutional finance. By providing specialised guidance, Hall helps clients navigate the nuances of music rights, from streaming revenue projections to the regulatory complexities of cross-border transactions.
The rise of music rights as a significant investment vehicle highlights a broader trend in global finance, where tangible and intangible assets are increasingly integrated into structured investment products. Hall's role at the helm of this practice positions her as a key figure in the ongoing transformation of how music assets are valued and financed on a global scale.
