Economic rights protect the author's rights to the financial benefits deriving from his or her work. While moral rights are protected indefinitely, economic rights are set for a fixed period of time. In Taiwan, economic copyright protection begins upon the completion of a work and extends for the lifetime of the author plus fifty years. Economic rights include rights to broadcast, reproduce, perform, exhibit, et cetera.
