UNIVERSAL MUSIC PUBLISHING MGB LIMITED is a Private limited company (Ltd.) registered in United Kingdom under 00910829, and its current status with Companies House is active. The company was incorporated on 17 July 1967 and lists its registered address as London, United Kingdom. 1 shareholder is on record for UNIVERSAL MUSIC PUBLISHING MGB LIMITED, and since every one of them is a company rather than an individual, this particular filing does not on its own establish an ultimate beneficial owner (UBO) — identifying one would mean tracing the ownership of each shareholding company in turn. This profile is sourced directly from Companies House and was last updated on 8 October 2026.

Officers

5

Three of the 5 officer records shown for UNIVERSAL MUSIC PUBLISHING MGB LIMITED are current appointments, filed with Companies House. Jacqueline Alway (appointed 2007-07-27) and Robert Morris (appointed 2008-04-01) both serve as Director; Abolanle Abioye (appointed 2007-12-03) serves as Company Secretary. The remaining 2 records shown (William Downs and Paul Connolly) are former appointments that have since been resigned.

The register reports 14 officers in total, including past appointments, though only the 5 most relevant records are shown here.

Management authority at UNIVERSAL MUSIC PUBLISHING MGB LIMITED sits with these individuals, not with shareholders, who are covered separately and hold ownership rather than control.

The source filing doesn't specify representation authority — whether officers can act individually or must sign jointly to bind the company — so that detail isn't available here.

Group Structure

UNIVERSAL MUSIC PUBLISHING MGB LIMITED sits 4 levels below its ultimate parent, Universal Music Group N.V., registered in Netherlands. 6 subsidiaries are recorded beneath it, across 1 jurisdiction. The full chain up to Universal Music Group N.V. is derived by walking shareholder filings across jurisdictions; no link in it is independently corroborated by UNIVERSAL MUSIC PUBLISHING MGB LIMITED's own shareholder record. Each of these downward relationships is derived rather than filed: resolved by matching entities across the registry network, not stated directly in a single document.

Those 6 subsidiaries span United Kingdom jurisdiction, though this list should not be read as complete — subsidiaries only become visible here where shareholder data has actually been filed with a register, so holdings in jurisdictions without that filing simply won't appear. One of the 6 go a level deeper still, with its own further subsidiaries recorded beneath it — additional ownership layers this view doesn't expand.
