Greystone Royalty Capital
Own the rights?
Access the capital.
A royalty-producing music catalog can represent more than monthly income. It may be a financeable intellectual-property asset.
Greystone evaluates verified music rights, historical royalty performance, ownership percentage, and existing obligations to determine whether financing options may be available. Before automatically selling your catalog, explore what other capital options may exist.
Financing is subject to ownership verification, documentation, catalog performance, transaction structure, and underwriting. Submitting an inquiry does not guarantee approval or funding.
Catalog capital, thoughtfully structured
Your music is creative property.
Your catalog may also be a financial asset.
Greystone Royalty Capital works with music-industry professionals who own verifiable economic interests in released music that generates recurring royalty income.
Depending on the final transaction structure, a catalog owner may be able to explore capital for new projects, marketing, touring, working capital, debt restructuring, real estate, catalog acquisitions, or other investments.
Available structures, collateral requirements, assignments, and ownership implications are determined only after the catalog and proposed transaction are reviewed.

Who the program is for
Built for people who own the economics behind the music.
Songwriters and Producers
Creators receiving verified publishing royalties, producer royalties, points, or other contractual income.
Labels and Publishers
Companies controlling royalty-producing masters, compositions, or publishing rights.
Catalog Owners and Investors
Individuals or companies that acquired economic interests in existing catalogs.
Estates and Heirs
Authorized heirs, trusts, or estates that inherited music rights and royalty income.
Industry Advisors

A strong prospect generally has:
- Released music with an established royalty history
- A legally verifiable ownership interest
- A clear ownership percentage
- Royalty statements or catalog-performance reports
- Bank statements showing royalty deposits
- Documentation concerning previous advances, assignments, liens, pledges, or partial sales
- A defined capital request and intended use of funds
What does not automatically qualify
- Performing a song without owning its economic rights
- Appearing in song credits without a royalty-producing ownership interest
- Unreleased music with no royalty history
- Future projects based only on anticipated streams
- Rights owned entirely by a label, publisher, or another party
- Catalog interests that cannot be legally documented
How the process works
A disciplined review of rights, revenue and readiness.

Questions, answered
Catalog funding FAQ
Master, publishing, composition, producer, performance, licensing, purchased, inherited, and other royalty-producing interests may be considered. The applicant must own or control a verifiable economic interest.
Not necessarily. Greystone can evaluate whether financing or other transaction options may be available. The final structure determines the rights, collateral, assignments, and obligations involved.
The primary evaluation focuses on ownership, historical royalty income, catalog performance, documentation, and the proposed transaction. Additional information may be requested depending on the final structure.
This program is designed around released music with verifiable historical royalty performance. Anticipated future streams alone generally do not establish the required valuation history.
Potentially. An applicant can only pledge, finance, or sell the economic interest that the applicant legally owns or controls.
Disclose it in the questionnaire. Existing advances, assignments, pledges, liens, and partial sales must be reviewed to determine what rights remain available.
Complete opportunities may close in approximately two weeks after all required documentation is received. Actual timing depends on ownership verification, catalog complexity, documentation, and underwriting.
