In his conversation with Bloomberg News, Arnott encouraged investors with new money to be “careful in allocating their money”. Arnott frames his discussion about investment around three foundations: “thinking long-term, diversifying, and managing risk relevant to your human capital”. With this framework in mind, Arnott advised that global real estate, international value, and emerging-market value were the most interesting and return-oriented investments to make right now. For Arnott personally, the Banksy market is a particularly desirable investment asset – and a good place to deploy “a modest slice of your $1million” to yield profit and also acquire something “fun and hilarious to look at”.
Also, Alexa Phillips declared in The Times: “Art has overtaken fine wine as the top-performing collectable investment, with prices driven up by demand from the ultra-wealthy”. With a 29% increase in art prices last year alone, there has never been a better time to invest in art, diversify your portfolio, and think long-term when it comes to alternative investment assets.
