Media 360

Third Edition

Welcome to the latest edition of Moore Media 360

Welcome to the latest edition of Moore Media 360, which is our collection of topical content from our Moore Global member firms and clients from around the world.
Whilst this edition continues our focus on ESG – in particular, its relevance to value creation in the advertising sector – it also seeks to highlight the hot topics within the media sector across the world. From the UK, we reveal key trends in the media sector, as well as looking at the dominant question in the marketing services sector – what does post-covid financial recovery look like? Taking a different perspective, in Nigeria, how has the pandemic triggered a major boost to the film industry and fledgling media tech sector?
As an international network, working with clients across the world, cross-border taxation is always front of mind. In this edition, we look at tax planning for inbound entertainers to the US. From a corporate point of view, we also explore the funding arrangements for cross-border film financing for taxation purposes.
We are proud to hear more about Moore Tejero’s development of a training program to complement that of the Ministry of Education of Buenos Aires City’s, which seeks to improve opportunities for students in the marketing services sector in response to the economic challenges Argentina currently faces. We are also pleased to hear from Moore Beirut how they can help clients in the media sector, which is a well established market that is experiencing a resurgence. Although it is a time of uncertainty, our experts across the world are working together to give confidence to you and your business. I hope that this edition gives you a picture of this, as we welcome articles from those countries who have not previously featured here.
As always, we hope you find Moore Media 360 insightful.
