Pullman Group Snapshot
Ziggy played the market. The Pullman Group issues bonds secured by the future royalties of popular songs. The group garnered attention in 1997 when it launched "Bowie Bonds," which securitized future royalties of 300 David Bowie songs, including "Ziggy Stardust." Bonds have been issued for such artists as James Brown, the Isley Brothers, Motown hitmakers Holland-Dozier-Holland, and for TV and movie libraries. The company also handles the sales and securitization of other intellectual properties such as trademarks and patents.
