Radar Empresarial: Sony adquiere un catálogo musical de Blackstone por 4.000 millones de dólares

from Capital Intereconomía

En el Radar Empresarial repasamos la última gran apuesta de Sony dentro de la industria musical. La compañía japonesa ha pagado 4.000 millones de dólares para quedarse con el catálogo completo de Recognition Music Group, propiedad del fondo BlackStone. La operación incorpora cerca de 45.000 canciones de artistas tan conocidos como Beyoncé, Bon Jovi y Mariah Carey. Uno de los aspectos más destacados del acuerdo es la alianza con un fondo soberano de Singapur, socio estratégico de Sony desde comienzos de este año. Esta compra encaja plenamente en la estrategia que Sony viene desarrollando desde hace tiempo. Hace aproximadamente un año, el grupo ya había adquirido Hipgnosis Songs Group, filial perteneciente también a Recognition. Los catálogos musicales se han convertido en activos prioritarios para la empresa, especialmente después de comprobar el creciente peso de la música en sus resultados financieros. Durante el primer trimestre, Sony registró ingresos cercanos a los 20.000 millones de dólares, una subida interanual del 8,3%. De esa cifra total, unos 3.000 millones procedieron de música grabada y publishing. El negocio musical resulta cada vez más rentable para Sony gracias al crecimiento de plataformas como TikTok y Spotify. Solo mediante streaming editorial, la multinacional obtuvo más de 400 millones de dólares. Este escenario contrasta con otras áreas de la empresa, como la división de videojuegos, donde la compañía espera una reducción de ventas del 6% durante 2026. En el caso de Spotify, la plataforma asegura destinar aproximadamente el 70% de sus ingresos musicales a los propietarios de derechos. Según Music Business Worldwide, Sony, Universal y Warner concentran el 52% del ingreso neto generado por sus artistas en Spotify. Sin embargo, Legal Clarity sostiene que los músicos únicamente reciben entre el 15% y el 25% de los royalties. Esta situación explica la competencia entre las grandes discográficas por controlar los catálogos más valiosos del mercado, con operaciones millonarias realizadas durante los últimos años.
