The Art Exchange combines three categories of instruments to build a comprehensive financial solution for the art world:
1.
Instruments for collective ownership: tokenization
A collector brings in an art piece to be either sold fractionally or to borrow money against it. The artwork is tokenized and listed on the platform with the desired specifications. Multiple investors either buy fractions of the artwork or lend money to the collector.
The collector pays off the loan and the accumulated interest to the investors. If the art piece was offered for sale, The Art Exchange team will sell it in the most favorable moment to fetch a higher price. The proceedings are shared with investors in proportion to their share of ownership in the artwork.
The platform locks collateral until the maturity date. After, the platform executes contracts, including profit or loss
2.
Innovative instruments to transfer verified prices of selected artworks to blockchain and support other infrastructure initiatives
