INVESTMENTS are traditionally associated with stocks, bonds, real estate and commodities that offer a range of options, each with its own risk and return profile.
However, in recent years, there has been a growing interest in Malaysia with art as an alternative mode of investment.
Paintings, sculptures and other creative expressions have gained recognition as a unique and potentially lucrative addition to investment portfolios.
The Malaysian Reserve (TMR) explores how art serves as an alternative mode of investment and its correlation with traditional investments, as well as how art can diversify an investment portfolio, offering both financial and aesthetic benefits.
Art Vs Traditional Investments
Art is intriguing to investors because it serves as a tangible asset that can be appreciated over time, similar to real estate.
The value of a well-chosen piece of art can increase significantly, making it a viable option for those seeking capital appreciation.
