Warner/Chappell chairman and CEO Jon Platt will be stepping down from his role at the company, amid rumours that he could be the next boss of rival publisher Sony/ATV. “WMG is an amazing company. I’ve grown so much in my time here, not only as a music executive, but as a leader,” wrote Platt in a memo to colleagues announcing his departure.

Billboard suggested that he could be “taking the reins” at Sony/ATV, although what that would mean for its current boss Martin Bandier remains to be seen.
