DCD Media teams up with private equity firm to create new fund

Thursday, August 28, 2008

DCD Media, the independent TV production and distribution group, has teamed up with a private equity firm to create a new fund to invest in the exploitation rights of programmes being handled by DCD Rights - the newly branded TV distribution arm of DCD Media.

The new fund could see a significant increase in the sales and profitability of DCD Rights - as much as £60 million of additional sales are envisaged over the probable four-year life of the fund, from which DCD Rights will earn its typical commission rates on distribution.

Funding will be available both to DCD's internally produced content and to third party programme makers, whose content will then be distributed by DCD Rights under the terms of the agreement.

The deal should mean that DCD's internal production companies can produce more content and avoid giving away certain rights in return for 'gap' funding. It could also attract third-party programme makers to distribute content through DCD Rights.
