Accordingly, the acquisition of art as a high-performance asset class is no longer considered an alternative financial investment, but a key one, with leading private banks classing art as a passion asset.

Shrewd investors have put 10-20% of their wealth into this asset class because of the low correlation to other markets and consistent growth over the last 60 years.
