What is art leasing?
Art leasing (or rental with option to purchase) works on a principle similar to that of leasing vehicles or professional equipment.
Instead of buying a work of art directly, you rent it for a defined period (usually from 12 to 60 months) from a specialized financing organization.
At the end of the contract, several options are available to you:
- Acquiring the artwork for a symbolic residual value, often in the range of 1 to 5% of its initial price.
- Return the work and rent a new one.
- Extend the lease agreement.
Significant tax advantages
The rents paid are considered as operating expenses for the company and are deductible from taxable income, thus reducing corporate tax.
Preserving cash flow and borrowing capacity
By opting for leasing, you avoid a heavy initial investment that could weigh on your company's cash flow and keep your liquidity for other needs.
Improving the premises and enhancing the brand image
Incorporating works of art into your offices creates a stimulating and refined atmosphere. This contributes to employee well-being and enhances the company's brand image.
Access to quality works of art
Leasing opens access to works by established or emerging artists, allowing you to build a quality collection.
Flexibility and easy renewal
The duration of the leasing contracts is flexible and adapts to your needs. At the end of the contract, the collection can be renewed.
Support for artistic creation
By opting for leasing, you actively participate in supporting artistic creation and the development of artists.
What makes leasing works of art particularly attractive:
- Turnkey solution: complete support from selection to installation.
- Controlled budget: fixed and predictable rents.
- Asset appreciation (in the long term): adding a valuable asset to your portfolio.
- Diversification of investments.
