Pullman Securities, LLC

Overview

Pullman Securities, LLC presents itself as an investment bank and specialty finance provider that focuses on the entertainment and intellectual property (IP) sectors. The firm’s materials describe a business built around providing liquidity and structured financing to creators, rights holders, and companies that own copyrights, publishing shares, record masters, royalty streams and other contract-based revenue. Pullman traces its roots to market-making and securitization activity in music royalties and related IP — most famously the securitization tied to David Bowie’s catalog — and reports cumulative transaction experience in excess of $1B through 2018. The firm emphasizes bespoke financing structures that account for tax, marital and estate planning considerations, and it positions its solutions as alternatives to outright sales or high-cost advances from traditional record or publishing deals. Pullman markets a toolkit that includes off‑balance-sheet structures, long‑term fixed‑rate financings, non‑recourse terms in many transactions, and documentation designed to preserve upside for content owners while delivering upfront cash. Pullman also describes a market role beyond lending: originating and underwriting securitizations and acting as exclusive agent for sales of IP-backed receivables. The business stresses institutional-style execution — including rated securitizations — and notes historical relationships with major music industry organizations and publishers when sourcing and structuring deals.
