Lockton - A Guide to Today's Fine Art Insurance


Thank you to everyone who attended our recent workshop on fine art insurance, where Rebecca Spence from Lockton shared valuable insights on navigating policy clauses, understanding valuations, and managing risks for transit, storage, and exhibitions. Key topics included the scope of fine art insurance, policy limits, common exclusions, and the importance of regular valuation updates to prevent underinsurance. She also highlighted risk management best practices, such as security systems, environmental controls, and staff training. The Q&A session featured real cases and valuable experiences shared by participants.
