The gap
Insurance built for collectors.
Most policies were not designed with valuable art in mind. They were designed for houses, and art was added afterwards.
The result is a set of familiar problems that collectors tend to discover late.
- 01
Outdated valuations
A sum insured agreed at purchase, or at the last review, quietly drifts away from what a work would actually achieve today.
- 02
Underinsurance
When values rise faster than cover, the shortfall only becomes visible at the moment it matters most.
- 03
Generic household policies
Standard contents cover treats a significant artwork as furniture, with single-item limits and exclusions to match.
- 04
Complex claims processes
Without documented provenance, condition and value, a claim becomes an exercise in reconstructing evidence after the fact.
- 05
Limited market understanding
Insurers unfamiliar with the art market struggle to assess restoration, loan, transit and depreciation in value fairly.
Artscapy exists to close that gap — through specialist expertise and a collector-first approach.
The foundation
Protection starts with understanding your collection.
The quality of insurance depends on the quality of the information behind it. A collection that is accurately catalogued and continuously monitored is simply easier to protect properly.
Artscapy maintains accurate records, current market values and complete documentation — creating stronger foundations for insurance throughout the life of a collection.
- 01
Collection
Every work catalogued once — medium, dimensions, edition, condition and location.
- 02
Documentation
Provenance, invoices, certificates and condition reports held together as a single record.
- 03
Continuous valuation
Market evidence tracked as it moves, so current value is known rather than assumed.
- 04
Specialist insurance
Cover placed on accurate figures, with documentation already in place.
- 05
Ongoing protection
As the collection and the market change, cover is reviewed rather than left to drift.
The same record that supports a valuation supports a claim. Nothing is rebuilt from scratch.
Explore ONE IntelligenceWhat cover includes
Insurance designed around your collection.
Cover is assembled from the way collections are actually held, moved and shown — not from a standard template.
Worldwide cover
Protection wherever your collection lives or travels, across residences and jurisdictions.
Agreed values
Your collection insured on accurate, appropriate market values rather than a figure fixed years ago.
Transit & shipping
Protection during transport, exhibition loan and international movement, including packing and handling.
Private residences
Specialist cover for works displayed at home, written around the art rather than the contents.
Storage & freeports
Protection for artworks held in professional storage and freeport facilities between displays.
Newly acquired artworks
Straightforward cover as the collection evolves, so recent acquisitions are never left waiting.
Connected by design
A smarter approach to protecting art.
Insurance should not exist in isolation. Arranged separately, it duplicates work already done and relies on information that is already out of date.
Held alongside records, valuations and documentation, it becomes part of a complete collection management experience — one understanding of a collection, serving every decision made about it.
Portfolio records
Every work catalogued once, with documents attached to the object itself.
Market valuations
Current values tracked continuously rather than revisited occasionally.
Documentation
Provenance, invoices, certificates and condition reports held in one place.
Insurance
Cover placed on that evidence, and reviewed as the evidence changes.
Finance
Borrowing assessed against the same values, without a separate exercise.
Selling
Consignment and private sale drawing on the same record and history.
The difference
Why collectors choose Artscapy.
Collection-first approach
Cover designed around collectors and the way they actually hold, move and show work — rather than a standard policy with art appended to it.
Continuous portfolio intelligence
Better records and current valuations support better protection. The information behind a policy is maintained, not gathered in a hurry when something changes.
Independent expertise
Advice focused on your collection and your interests. We are not tied to placing a particular product with a particular insurer.
Integrated platform
Manage, protect, finance and sell your collection from one trusted place, with the same understanding informing each decision.
Our process
How a review works.
Four steps, at your pace. A review carries no obligation to change anything — often it simply confirms that existing arrangements are sound.
- 1
Understand your collection
We review your artworks, documentation and insurance requirements — establishing what you hold, where it sits and how it moves.
- 2
Review your cover
We assess your existing arrangements and identify where protection can be improved, including limits, exclusions and valuation basis.
- 3
Arrange specialist insurance
We work with trusted specialist providers to secure appropriate cover, presented clearly so you know precisely what is protected.
- 4
Support your collection
As your collection evolves, we help ensure your protection evolves with it — acquisitions, loans, relocations and sales included.
