Art, Illiquid No More: The Rise of Art Lending
Art has long been viewed as an illiquid asset, but the rapid growth of art-backed lending is transforming how collectors and investors view their art collections and access liquidity. This panel examines the evolution of the art lending market, highlighting the key players, market dynamics, and opportunities it presents for collectors, investors, and wealth advisors. Panelists will also explore valuation and risk considerations and discuss how art lending is increasingly integrated into sophisticated wealth, balance sheet, and estate planning strategies.
