Art Lending Program That Works for Dealers
Art dealers would rather pay lower interest rate
and share the up side when they sell the art.
No personal guarantees are required.
The art will be in the care, custody, and control of the
lender at all times and stored in a specialized, bonded
fine art storage warehouse.
The dealer may enter the warehouse under supervision
to show the art to potential buyers at any time.
