Salary benchmarks
Our take
Universal Music Group (UMG) was founded in 1998 and it has grown rapidly and steadily since, now establishing a position as one of the "Big Three" record labels (alongside Sony Music and Warner Music Group).
UMG differentiates itself from competitors with its internal links across business functions. Each artist can access the best recording technologies, merchandising services, management services, and live music services, as well as much more. This is not provided by other smaller and even larger companies, meaning UMG is in a unique position to build each artist’s “brand”.
UMG became a publicly traded company in late 2021 and has used funds to finance its international expansion. Valued at over $49.8 billion, this global music leader looks to remain in a strong position for years to come.
