Questions/Answers
Do Societe Generale Private Banking's partners only support experienced art collectors?
No, on the contrary, our offer is aimed at a wide range of clients with various needs. Some of our clients benefit from our help with a first acquisition or the beginning of a collection.
Others require our support with the evaluation of one or more objects with a view to a sale, or for the insurance or transfer of a collection, or even for a philanthropic project in the world of the arts.
Is SG Kleinwort Hambros an art expert?
Even though we have experienced and knowledgeable people within our organisation, SG Kleinwort Hambros' ambition is not to become an art "expert". In this field, the real expertise is in the hands of our professional partners from the art world, who combine depth of experience, unique specialities and irreplaceable infrastructure, which would be difficult to duplicate within a bank. We believe that it makes more sense to mobilise hand-picked experts from the art world in order to best support each of our clients.
