Museums

The greatest art is to choose

With subsidies fading away, commercialisation and digitalisation: the world around you is changing. This brings all kinds of risks, from cyber attacks to an increasing number of contracts with external parties. These days, you have much more on your mind than exhibitions alone.

That is why our services go beyond the smart insurance of your collection. To us, that is a basic requirement. We are here to assist museums and galleries manage risks in a broad sense. The greatest art? That is to choose. High costs are not an option, nor is running unnecessary risks.

Ensuring peace of mind by looking forward

During an initial meeting clients often have doubts, are not sure whether all the major risks are covered or whether they are perhaps overinsured.

We help you move forward by identifying the risks together, both existing and new risks. So as to be able to subsequently prevent or – where necessary – cover the risks. It is a discipline in its own right and a maze for many, but we are experienced in it and are happy to help you focus on your core business.

Art insurances are often not revised. As a result, many museums run unnecessary risks and miss out on opportunities.

You are our muse!

Each situation is different and so is each solution that we devise. We work closely with you to tailor that solution to your needs and interests. We believe in a personal approach. That is why we have highly qualified people who care about your business and are passionate about their work. People who are up to date with important developments in the museum world and who translate this knowledge into creative customised solutions for you.
