Swim away from the shallow

If the tax incentive is taken at face value the investors have an 9% risk on their investment, provided the loan segment is correctly covered; otherwise the risk is up to 40% of the investment.

Peloton Pictures wants to change this risk using Minimum Guarantees and pre-sales and other incentives to enable the best benefit for both producers and investors.

We have calculated precisely the guarantees and securities that are needed. Clearly the producer will have to accept that the potential benefits must be shared by the investors.

This amount however is very much in line with international standards, and not higher than, for instance, the Dutch CV tax scheme, or UK tax deals. Together with the producers of legitimate projects Peloton Pictures will fine tune those calculations on a project by project basis.

All pictures have to comply with the rules and regulations of the Belgian government and the European Union. Only feature films intended for theatrical release will be structured and managed by Peloton Pictures. Peloton Pictures is not currently set up for documentaries.

All films must be intended for a theatrical release throughout all available territories, and subsequently exploited in ancillary markets such as DVD, video, TV, Internet etc. Other revenues, amongst them merchandising, music rights and live-action spin offs, will all be part of the income pool shared by the investors.
