Comment from AIM

London, UK, 31st January 2024 Gee Davy, COO of the AIM, said: “The Transparency Code is a milestone, with participants across the music sector uniting to improve trust and understanding of the streaming ecosystem through transparency. We welcome the participating streaming platforms’ commitment to aid wider understanding of their models and payments. As well as providing clarity on expected standards for more established players, we expect the Code to prove vital for those starting out and growing their business to ensure they are set on the right path from day one. By consulting across the broad independent sector, AIM has ensured that the Code should be achievable for all, no matter their scale. We will be collaborating with other trade body signatories over the coming months to offer guidance and support for independents to ensure all can uphold the highest standards possible.”
