# Asset Selection & Sourcing

Our AI scans global markets to target assets with multi-million to multi-billion dollar markets. 

## Data-Driven Selection Criteria

We analyze historical price returns and market performance to select assets with proven appreciation potential — from blue-chip art to luxury watches and collectibles

**Historical Performance Analysis**

* Track historical appreciation
* Analyze auction results, and private sales
* Identify artists with consistent market demand

**Market Size Assessment**

* Focus on artists with substantial market liquidity
* Identify the best performing themes, series and categories
* Target pieces from recognized, established markets

**Asset Categories**

* **Fine Art:** Works by masters like Warhol, Koons, Banksy, Picasso
* **Luxury Watches:** Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet
* **Collectibles:** Rare cars, vintage items, cultural artifacts

### Sourcing Strategy

Once our AI identifies target assets, we source the best possible price according to each artist's current fair market value. Our team reaches out to a global network of verified sellers — including galleries, auction houses, private collectors, and institutional partners — to acquire the highest quality pieces at optimal pricing.
