How it works

UPDATE: Screenrights Disbursements acts in the capacity of the producer to collect net receipts from sales made around the world after sales agents and distributors have recovered their expenses, deducted their commissions and recouped any advances.

Distributors and sales agents report to Screenrights Disbursements and pay net receipts into the collection account. All returns collected by Screenrights are securely held in trust.

We reconcile incoming receipts, allocate returns in accordance with the recoupment waterfall and disburse amounts to investors and other beneficiaries.

We partner with production companies to help them set and forget their royalty administration and investor reporting.

Our Clients & Partners

Disbursement of gross receipts has become such a specialised activity that it often gets put in the too hard basket when time is short. I think it's great that Screenrights has now moved into this space, especially given their experience in royalties distribution over many years. It seems like a natural evolution of their services.
Sue TaylorProducer, Taylor Media
Matchbox welcomes Screenrights into the Disbursement arena, and we have been very pleased with the way that the service is developing. All of our investors expect accurate disbursements and transparent reporting - and, much like the service we have received from Screenrights across the educational space, we know that we can rely on Screenrights to deliver this.
Chris Oliver-Taylor Managing Director, Matchbox Pictures
We are pleased Screenrights is taking on this important function. It is reassuring that the industry will continue to have access to an Australian disbursement service. Screenrights is ideally placed to fill that role given its relationships in the industry over many years and the similarities between its current function and this new business.
