Why Invest in Art?
Art is transformative. Not only does it change the way we think and feel, it can also bring big financial rewards. With a $1.7 trillion global marketplace, art is a profitable investment that consistently outperforms other asset classes.
Art has several intrinsic advantages, including low maintenance costs, portability, low volatility, hedging possibilities and the ability to increase in value. Furthermore, the unique interplay between art’s cultural and financial value results in high investment returns that remain stable, and can even be fueled by wider financial turmoil or turbulence.
