New film fund launched

UK finance and production company Future Films and Canadian based Mediabiz International have launched a joint film fund. They will invest in co-productions from the UK, Europe and Canada.

The fund will be worth up to USD133 million and will cash flow tax credits, pre-sales and gap funding, as well as taking advantage of Canada's numerous co-production treaties.

Stephen Margolis, chief executive of Future Films, said:

“For the first time, this will enable us to fully finance projects without being dependant on other parties.”

Karine Martin, Mediabiz International President also added:

“After 10 years of having raised equity for film and television, Mediabiz can offer an additional financial service to the industry.”
