The Music Fund is a spin-out from Winton, one of the most successful data-driven global investment management companies. The new platform will use expertise in data science and machine learning to invest in human creativity, starting with the music industry. The Music Fund will build a new global market and bring together two groups: musicians, who
will receive capital to invest in developing their talent, and investors, who will benefit from an uncorrelated revenue stream. The data revolution enables accurate valuation and systematic risk control. The Music Fund distinguishes itself from traditional record labels by harnessing this data to invest at scale in the long tail of musicians using statistical methods well-established within the finance industry.
