Hidden reserves – with a difference
Corporate collection
One of the ways that companies fulfil their social responsibility is by accumulating collections of art. In so doing, they support the prevailing cultural identity in their own localities. Entrepreneurial far-sightedness and individuality originate and cultivate valuable collections whose value trajectory follows that of the art market.
It is generally the case that the classic instruments of industrial insurance leave these valuable objects and their preservation inadequately protected – in the financial sense – for the owners. This is a major challenge for every responsible person in the respective company.
In collaboration with the insurance departments and the commercial undertakings, we develop the right concept from the standpoint of general risk management.
