4.0 out of 5

ADAMI is a cornerstone of performer rights management in France, handling neighboring rights and supporting nearly 100,000 performers with royalty collections, career support, and financial assistance. Their recent willingness to form partnerships and pursue potential mergers with organizations like SCPP and SPPF is a clear response to longstanding inefficiencies and fragmentation in French rights management, aiming to streamline collections and strengthen artists' collective bargaining power. However, the complicated landscape—with multiple organizations and historical differences in distribution rules—has caused confusion and sometimes weakened artists’ negotiating positions compared to other European countries. Despite these structural challenges, ADAMI’s moves toward unification signal progress, and performers benefit from increased clarity and support. As the French system modernizes, ADAMI’s commitment to efficiency and artist advocacy stands out.
