Hot take

CASH (Composers and Authors Society of Hong Kong) is the primary performing rights organization (PRO) in Hong Kong, serving to protect and administer the rights of composers and authors since 1977. It handles copyright licensing and royalty distribution for local and international music creators, covering usage in public performance, broadcasting, and new media. CASH is notable for its efforts to promote music copyright awareness and for sponsoring local music activities, scholarships, and talent development. However, like many legacy PROs, it can feel bureaucratic and slow to adapt to rapidly changing industry needs, with some creators citing a lack of modern digital tools and limited transparency in payment processes. All things considered, CASH remains an essential PRO for Hong Kong-based creators, but there’s room for modernization and better communication.
