UMW Song Assets

UMW Song Assets is a publishing administration service operated under UMW Recordings Inc. It is positioned as a rights-management and royalty-collection platform for anyone with an intellectual property interest in a song — authors, composers, producers, artists, record labels and catalog owners. Through UMW Song Assets, these rights holders can request editorial management of their compositions and have them included in the repertoire managed by UMW, subject to applicable contracts, mandates and authorizations. The service covers the core administrative functions of music publishing: recording and documentation of compositions, rights registration, catalog administration, and the collection and distribution of publishing royalties. UMW Song Assets presents itself as a one-stop interface for registering works, tracking registration status, monitoring income by royalty channel, and reviewing publishing activity. Its public dashboard describes catalog metrics such as monthly works, registered writers, filed registrations, and royalty splits between the client and UMW. UMW Song Assets collects royalties across multiple channels, including performance, mechanical, synchronization and neighboring/other income. The platform reports a standard publishing administration split of 90% to the client and 10% to UMW, and it provides tools for inspecting collection splits, exporting statements, and comparing catalog health by registration status, income strength and growth signals. The dashboard is explicitly informational and does not replace the official semiannual publishing statement. As part of UMW Recordings Inc, UMW Song Assets sits alongside the company's digital music distribution business. The parent brand offers distribution and performance analytics for recorded music, while UMW Song Assets handles the publishing side — the composition copyrights and the royalties they generate. Together they form a combined offering for independent creators and catalog owners who want both distribution and publishing administration from a single provider. The brand operates with a global orientation, serving rights holders regardless of territory, and its website is available in English. Its identity is tied to the UMW Recordings Inc name, and its public materials emphasize direct royalty collection, transparent splits, and catalog health monitoring for creators.
