Merlin is a licensing body that represents tens of thousands of copyright holders and distributors.
When Merlin was founded in 2008, it classed itself as a “not-for-profit agency” owned by its members via a Netherlands-based incorporated entity.
This changed in 2020, when Merlin re-registered as an Eire-based company: Music and Entertainment Rights Licensing Independent Network Ltd.
That company posts its annual financials on the UK’s Companies House. This data has been used to inform the below chart, which shows Merlin’s recent annual revenues and admin expenses.
