Recommendation
Managers have a very important role in supporting artists’ careers but incidents of exploitation show that protections are required. CIISA should work with the Music Managers Forum to develop and oversee a mandatory accreditation programme for managers in the music industry. The licensing of football agents is one example of what such an accreditation process might look like. (Recommendation, Paragraph 129) 64 Non-disclosure agreements
