Why keep your valuation up to date?

As many fine art and chattel insurers now require up-to-date, itemised valuations as part of their risk management strategy, it is increasingly important to ensure that your collection is properly documented. Whether you own jewellery, art, antiques or specialist collections, a professional valuation helps ensure the correct compensation in the unfortunate event of a loss — and can prove invaluable in avoiding disputes with loss adjusters.

Market values for unique pieces rarely follow inflation and can change rapidly due to trends, condition and provenance. A regularly reviewed valuation can help optimise insurance premiums and ensure swift, fair settlements if a claim arises.
