In 2018, a version of intrepid artist Banksy’s <\/span>Girl with Balloon<\/em> <\/span>was sold by Sotheby’s in London for \u00a31,042,000 (US$1.3 million). As soon as the auctioneer’s gavel fell, the painting slipped through a hidden paper shredder built into the frame, destroying half the image. The half-shredded, newly dubbed <\/span>Love Is in the Bin <\/span><\/em>(2018) then sold in the same London salesroom for \u00a318.5 million (US$25.3 million) in 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOrdinarily, you’d say, ‘That’s a ruined piece of artwork,’ when, in fact, the artwork has now been sold for significantly more than it was purchased for,” says Alan Binnington, director of the trust specialist team at RBC Wealth Management in Jersey. \u201cIt’s just so different from anything that’s ever happened before, that people become excited and are prepared to pay for it.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The purchase of <\/span>Love Is in the Bin <\/span><\/i>(2018) is the epitome of art as an asset class, a spontaneous burst in value that represents both the volatility and allure of collecting art as a form of diversifying wealth. The nine-way bidding war for Banksy’s <\/span>Love Is in the Bin (2018)<\/em> <\/span>lasted 10 minutes, according to a <\/span>report from Artsy <\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The appetite for art as an asset class has risen among high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) in recent years, partially as a response to the instability in the financial markets, says Binnington. \u201cWhen the markets are volatile, people tend to favour investments that they can see and touch, like gold, classic cars and art.” According to a <\/span>report <\/a> <\/span>by the Chartered Alternative Investment Analyst Association (known as CAIA), the contemporary art market appreciated by 15.1 percent in 2020, even as auctions were put on hold or moved into online forums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, interest in art as an asset class by HNWIs isn’t necessarily about market instability; there’s a wider generational trend unfolding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new class of interest<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

High-net-worth millennials have emerged as key investors in the art market. Their spending patterns, motivations and challenges differ from those of traditional art buyers. Deloitte and ArtTactic’s <\/span>Art and Finance Report 2021 <\/a> <\/span><\/i>found that the majority (86 percent) of younger collectors (i.e., those under 35 years) rank social impact, emotional value and purpose-led investment in art as their highest motivation, versus 32 percent of older collectors. The survey also found they place a stronger emphasis on the financial aspect of art ownership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is reflected in 2021 figures from <\/span>Christie’s <\/a>, which found that 35 percent of the buyers at auctions were new \u2013 a third of whom were millennials. Buoyed by demand from next-gen wealth, 255-year-old Christie’s was the first major auction house to sell a purely digital NFT (non-fungible token) artwork \u2013 a form of unique digital asset stored on a blockchain. The piece, <\/span>Everydays, <\/span><\/em>by Beeple, sold for US$69 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Julie Kleis, trust specialist team director at RBC Wealth Management in Jersey, says she’s handled a number of works in trusts, but NFTs are an entirely new phenomenon. \u201cI personally don’t perceive it as art,” she says. But she also says it could very well become more common and accepted. \u201cPeople have different interpretations about what art is.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fluidity of art’s definition doesn’t apply to the complexities of art as an alternative investment. Collecting art carries a unique set of challenges to consider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Art for more than art’s sake<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As interest in art as an asset class has risen, trustees have broadened their skillset for supporting their clients, says Binnington. \u201cNow they tend to understand more of the pitfalls and risks.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an unregulated market, Binnington says, it’s important to have independent experts to guide the purchase, and to pay attention as values rise and fall and artists move in and out of fashion. \u201cThe old masters have been around for a long time. Therefore, their prices don’t fluctuate that much. As you come toward more modern art, prices tend to fluctuate simply because they haven’t been around that long,” he says. \u201cThen you go to the extreme with NFTs, where it’s hard to know if they’ll be a multiple of their value or merely a fraction next year.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, investing in a work of art is just the beginning. The next step is where the trustees really come into play, says Kleis. \u201cWe also have to consider the tax position \u2013 where is the art? Who’s enjoying the art? For example some of our clients have a piece of art that we own within our trust structures, but they have it in their homes, so, in effect, they’re borrowing it from us.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I had a client who had a violin that had to be kept at a certain temperature and humidity level, but he wanted to play it at a particular concert and the only way he could get it there was to take it on the plane,” says Kleis. \u201cSo sometimes the risks aren’t so easy to manage.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kleis says there are also scenarios in which a work of art that’s meaningful to a family ends up at the centre of a dispute over which members of the next generation will receive it. Placing the art in trust at an early stage can take some of the heat out of a dispute, given that the trustees will be the owners and so they can help navigate these situations says Kleis. \u201cThe trustees are well-placed to decide on the appropriate course of action, balancing the wishes of the beneficiaries with the protection of the trust assets.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An (en)viable alternative<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to CAIA, the art market has an estimated global value of US$1.7 trillion, with around US$60 billion in annual transaction volume. But there’s something special about art that supersedes financial value. Unlike a structured product or security within a portfolio, art tends to elicit emotional attachment. It makes people feel good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cArt is a very attractive area for some people,” says Binnington. \u201cIt’s always going to be a much higher risk area \u2026 but even if that value falls, you will always be able to display it in your home<\/mark> <\/span>and admire it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
