Latham & Watkins has advised Bridgepoint Credit on its strategic partnership with Rezonate Music Rights Ltd (Rezonate), a leading platform focused on acquiring the royalty rights of top music producers globally. The partnership will invest up to US$150 million of capital to support a pipeline of high-profile producer catalogue acquisitions, with Bridgepoint acquiring a minority stake in Rezonate’s management company as part of the transaction.

The Latham team was led by London private credit partner Fergus Wheeler and London corporate partners Farah O’Brien and Beatrice Lo, with associates Antonina Semyachkova and Zaal Cama.
