About Us
Our core aim is to offer insurance solutions to small to medium size clients struggling to find economically viable options within the conventional fine art and specie market.
We are here to help you whether it be due to: Geography, Client profile, Risk type, Risk size, Minimum premium or Duration.
Asset protection is at the heart of what we do. Whether your client has inherited a valuable jewellery collection or is securing gold doré on a remote mine site; we work closely with security consultants to ensure the asset is safe.
We appreciate accidents happen and are backed by recognised market leaders in this class. When the unfortunate happens, expert loss adjusters and/or restoration experts will be appointed to ensure claims are handled swiftly with the most effective outcome.
All products are covered on an ‘All risk of physical loss or physical damage basis’ subject to policy terms and conditions.
Specific coverages such as internal theft, out of safe/vault cover and natural catastrophes such as earthquake, wind, flood and wildfire can be written back on a case-by-case basis.
