Penske Media via Getty Images Content Partners has struck a new deal with Carlyle Global Credit to facilitate fresh investment capital for the company that has been a pioneer in buying out ownership stakes and profit participation rights in movies and TV shows from individuals and production companies.
Investment giant Carlyle owns the majority of Los Angeles-based Content Partners, which is marking its 20th anniversary this year. The company was founded by William Morris Agency veterans Steven Kram and Steven Blume to help provide liquidity to people and companies that have ownership interests in movies, TV shows, recordings, books, plays and other IP that pays out consistent royalties.
