As a specialist broker of insurance for artists, we know the specific risks to your business and will arrange appropriate cover, to ensure that in the event of a catastrophe or even a small loss, your income is protected with the minimum disruption to your work.
Exhibiting art can be a concern, our artists' insurance for exhibitions gives peace of mind that valued creations are being looked after when in the care of others.
The policies we arrange for artists can include cover for studio buildings, contents & equipment, completed work and works in progress, transits and exhibitions, as well as your legal liabilities to the public and to studio staff.
The proof of any insurance is its response to a claim, and we only arrange insurances that can be relied upon to pay.
We work with underwriters who understand the nature of what they are insuring, the particular risks, and how to make good in the event of a loss.
For our part, we oversee all claims from start to finish, using our considerable experience and contacts to achieve the best possible claim settlements.We are proud of our ability to settle the most complex claims for fine art, especially those involving damage, restoration and subsequent loss of value.
We are equally well equipped to help in the aftermath of a fire or flood, from arranging appropriate disaster recovery, to negotiating the right form of settlement. The majority of claims are, however, straightforward, and we aim to settle quickly and cleanly.
