The problems with the value of art as an asset class
• Art and antiques are heterogeneous commodities• Art is monopolized by one owner• The price of art reacts to changes in taste
• Art does not have a long-term equilibrium price • The holding and transacting costs for art are very high• Art does not offer a monetary dividend
(Baumol 1986)
![Page 5: Dr Iain Robertson - Art As Asset](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/5593050a1a28ab48768b46aa/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Caveats
• Data is based solely on auction house results.
• Survivorship bias. Works Bought In at auction are not recorded.
• Appraisal induced bias. Works of art at auction are estimated above zero and not allowed to sell at below an undisclosed reserve. Works of art are infrequently valued and subject to average price quotes
• The data bases do not calculate the changes in value over time of the individual objects
• Transaction costs are not impounded into final price.
• The art market indices are not investable

Average real returns 1975-2005
• Above trend inflation and growth (9.23%), art does the best
• Below trend inflation and below trend growth (7.54%), art does the worst
• Above trend inflation and below trend growth (-0.85%) art does the worst
• Above trend growth and below trend inflation (0.31%), art performs modestly in
(Barclays Capital, 2005)

Downside / Upside
Downside Protection
• Art market responded positively to extreme events on the stock market (R. Campbell, 2005)
• Art is pro-cyclical but with an approximately 18 month lag in the 1973 and 1987 stock market crashes
Upside Potential
• In bull markets with unexceptional performance
![Page 8: Dr Iain Robertson - Art As Asset](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/5593050a1a28ab48768b46aa/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Downside market returns
• The Art Market consistently offers downside protection to the equity market.
• During periods when the S&P 500 Index was down, the Art 100 Index generated superior returns.
• The lowest monthly return by the S&P 500 is -21.54% in October 1987. During that same month, the art market was up +2.86%
![Page 9: Dr Iain Robertson - Art As Asset](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/5593050a1a28ab48768b46aa/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Rising interest rates
• During periods of rising interest rates, art significantly outperformed both equity and bonds with lower risk.
• From 1978 to mid 1981, when interest rates rose from 6.70% to 19.10%, the Art 100 Index generated a 22.8% return vs. 15.6% for the S&P 500 and -1.4% for 10 Year Bonds.
• During the most recent period of rising interest rates, from 1999 to mid 2000, the Art 100 Index returned 13.0% vs. 11.4% for the S&P 500 and -0.7% for 10 Year Bonds.
![Page 10: Dr Iain Robertson - Art As Asset](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/5593050a1a28ab48768b46aa/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Diversification (1978-2003)
• While the S&P 500 and UK FTSE 100 have strong correlations to each other, Art 100 has consistently low and even negative correlations to domestic and international equity.
• An asset with negative correlation is a hedge asset. Such assets, like art, are particularly effective in reducing a portfolio's total risk.
• In fact, in every period below, art's consistently low correlations to all other asset classes enable art to have a key differentiating characteristic: the lower the correlations and covariances, the lower the total portfolio risk.
![Page 11: Dr Iain Robertson - Art As Asset](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/5593050a1a28ab48768b46aa/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Correlation: 1970-2005
» 12% UK Equity» -18% UK Bond» -5% UK Cash» 4% UK Linkers» 36% Commodities» 47% Property
• The correlation remains low when UK and US art markets, taken independently, are measured against US and UK equity markets
• The correlation is not significantly affected during bear and bull markets.
(R.Campbell, 2005)

Correlation Indices Full period: 1976-2009 (Deloitte, 2009) Much higher levels of correlation compared to previous analysis. AAI ranges from 10% over 20 year period to 45% over last two years. Modern and Contemporary is between 52% and 59%. Old Master is 0. Full period is from January 1976-end of March 2009. 20 year data from March 1989, 10 year data from March 1999, 5 year data from
March 2004, 2 yea data from March 2007, and 1 year data is from March 2008.

Emotional asset correlations
• Art, wine, English coins, flawless diamonds, Stamps, Clocks and watches, Atlases, Books, Jewellery and violins
• Books, watches, clocks and atlases have a high correlation to each other.
• There is a wider differentiation in price movements between art and wine
• Campbell, Koedijk, de Roon. 2008. Art Markets Symposium Maastricht University Chateau St. Gerlach, March 5-6 2008
![Page 14: Dr Iain Robertson - Art As Asset](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/5593050a1a28ab48768b46aa/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• In a period of global crisis the benefits of diversification tend to disappear. Also, we can observe an increase in correlation when extreme market movements occur
(P4. Deloitte 2009)
![Page 15: Dr Iain Robertson - Art As Asset](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062709/5593050a1a28ab48768b46aa/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Relative performance
• Recent underperformance of more traditional asset classes - for example, a 23.5% decline in the Dow Jones Industrials, a 37.6% decline in the S&P, and a 67.2% decline in the NASDAQ Composite from December 31, 1999 through December 31 2002
• Over the same period a decline of only 5.3% in the art market (using the Art Market Research Art 100 Index, middle 80% price bracket as a proxy for the art market)

Performance of art relative to equities:1976-2009
• An increase across all art market categories of 3% on the previous analysis. From 1975-2004 art returned a total for period of 0.51% (6.1% annually)
• Driven by the Contemporary art category which rose 166% in 2007.

Portfolio weights (Art 2005) Those average returns after transaction costs would have to increase
considerably today (2009) in order for art to be included in an investment portfolio, because art is longer as good a diversification as it was. (B.C,2005)
