THE BENEFITS OF A

and some of the most prestigious independent
publishing catalogues rely on UMPG and its 43 offices
around the world to handle the administrative tasks
associated with these valuable copyrights.
WHY UMPG

provides reliable and accurate song registrations and
innovative income tracking abilities. Our innovative
centralized systems result in your songs being registered
quicker, your money being collected and paid

Whether you choose to have a direct deal with only
one of our offices or have UMPG handle administration
for a region (e.g., ex-North America or S.E. Asia) you
will receive a superior level of service. Our VPs of
International, based in London and in Los Angeles are
available to assist you.
EXPLOITATION
