NEW YORK, NY.- Fractional Ownership of Art: A Fascinating Investment Model for Art Lovers and Astute Investors
As equity markets remain overvalued and people look for sustainable investments, fractionalized sales have become a burgeoning segment in the partial ownership of artworks.
ARTBnk, the FinTech SaaS platform that is a leading source of valuation, financial performance, and liquidity data on the global art market, is entering into the fractionalization of art, to provide investors with opportunities to own and invest in fine art pieces. ARTBnk is set to launch its first fractionalization product.
Historically, investment opportunities and ownership in the $1.7 trillion global art market have been limited to the very wealthy. Blue-chip artwork has substantially outperformed the S&P 500, making it an interesting choice for people who want to diversify their investment portfolios. ARTBnk intends to make works of art affordable and accessible for clients who may take advantage of the potential of art as a financial asset.
Art is an inflation protected asset with little correlation to equities. High demand coupled with a global supply, scarcity of high-quality art pieces has driven the art market towards steady price appreciation.
The Basics of Fractionalization
Fractional ownership involves purchasing fractional interests of an asset. Each fractional interest represents a percentage of total ownership. Fractional investing may lead to those interests being traded on an exchange without the asset itself being sold.
With fractional ownership, people share the benefits, rights, and also the risks of ownership. This investment model is moderately stable and has the potential for significant returns.
Why is ARTBnk the Choice for Sustainable Fractional Investments in Art?
ARTBnks financial tools make it possible to manage art as a financial asset a disruptive service to the traditional approach to art investing. With their teams 200 years of combined entrepreneurial experience in Wall Street, technology, global financial markets, and art markets, ARTBnk is uniquely qualified to move in the direction of fractionalization.
Talking about their aim to democratize the art market, ARTBnks Chairman Asher Edelman said, Artbnk has been planning this launch for the past few months. We consider art a remarkable asset uncorrelated to all other financial assets. Artbnk has been a primary mover in changing art from a hard asset growing into a financial asset. And we believe that fractionalization is a big part of the future, with individuals being able to own part of major works of art.

Art as an asset or a fractionalized asset, is speculative, involves a high degree of risk, is generally illiquid, may decrease in value, is subject to potential market manipulation risks and may expose investors to loss of principal. Investors must be able to afford the loss of their entire investment.
Fractionalization is based on a single asset with 100% of the investment concentrated in a single artwork which makes such investment highly risky.
