For collectors & families

The collection
as serious wealth.

For many families, the collection is among the largest and least examined lines on the balance sheet. We help you give it the same rigor as everything else you own — without reducing it to a number.

Situations

The moments we're calledCollections raise financial questions that neither the art world nor the wealth-management world fully answers alone.

The collection has grown into a meaningful share of family wealth, and no one has ever looked at it the way you look at the rest of the portfolio.
You need liquidity — for an opportunity, an obligation, or a transition — and would rather borrow against a work than part with it.
An estate is being planned, or settled, and the collection is the hardest asset in it: to value, to divide, to keep intact.
The next generation cares about different artists, or doesn't yet care at all, and the family needs a stewardship plan rather than a stalemate.
You are contemplating a significant acquisition or disposition and want independent analysis before the market knows your intentions.

Where we come in

Counsel, not custody

Collection Advisory

Acquisition and disposition strategy, valuation analysis, and estate and legacy planning for the collection as a whole.

Art-Secured Financing Strategy

Independent counsel on borrowing against works — structure, custody, valuation risk, and exit — before anything is pledged. We advise; we do not lend.

Collector Wealth Strategy

Diversification, succession, and generational transfer, coordinated with your existing legal, tax, and investment advisors.

Perspective

The collection in the estate is a conversation worth having early — while every option is still open.

What families tend to get wrong about art in generational planning, and the questions that prevent it.
