A recent article published by the Neue Zürcher Zeitung shows the constantly growing interest in art lending and art finance. As one of the main participants in the market, Thomas González Art Loans is introduced in the article. According to the article, art lending and art finance along with other art investment vehicles like third-party-guarantees in auctions, is a well etablished business in the US. However, there is a lot of potential for growth for art-related financing in Europe.
Thomas González Art Loans is listed among the art lenders that are described in the recently published Skate´s Art Loans Report 2015. The report provides an overview of the global art-asset-backed lending market (“art-loans” market), art financing and art investment.
The New York Times has recently published an article on art financing overwritten “Riding on the Back of High-Value Art”. Among other participants in the art lending and art financing market, Thomas González is cited and provides insights in his experience with offering art loans and art finance.
PrivateArtInvestor.com, the financial magazine for the art world, has recently published an extensive interview with Thomas González on his art lending and art financing activities. Apart from his experiences in the art financing market, Thomas González points out his expectations for the art market in the near future. Due to the lack of alternative investments, Thomas González argues that the art market, the art loan and art finance industry alike, will continue to grow.
One of the most important german magazines on art and antiquities, the Weltkunst magazine, reports on Thomas González activities an an art dealer. “The art market is in a state of flux,” González says, “the old models are not working anymore. Many galleries close, even those that have decades of tradition. The market has become much more global and more specific.
Historically, the bad liquidity of art ownership is considered the biggest disadvantage of art investment. Unlike stocks or bonds, González writes that art, like real estate, can not be converted into money within a day. If the sale to a collector or dealer does not succeed directly, then the art investor would have to sell through the auction houses which can take three to twelve months. The advantage: no quick decisions are needed.
Thomas González has just recently published his second book “Kunst Investment-Guide” in which he analyzes the art market of the 101 most important artists. With this new publication, Thomas González establishes a reputation as an expert in art finance, art lending and art investment.
