Private Collectors Insurance
Private Collectors Insurance
Protect Your Passion
We at MVR Insurance together with Chartis appreciate the dedication it takes to build a unique collection of artwork, jewelry, wine, antiques or virtually any other rarities - and we share your attention to detail when it comes to insuring it. Our Private Client Group can curate a thorough plan to safeguard your prized possessions, as if they were our own.
- Comprehensive coverage
Insure virtually any fine collectible or memorabilia - from autographs to Zulu war masks. Our policy responds to damage from fire, theft, earthquake, flood and breakage.
- 150% replacement
If a loss occurs and the item’s current market value exceeds your coverage limit, you can be
reimbursed for up to 150% of the insured amount.
- Newly acquired items
New acquisitions are immediately covered at the time of purchase.
- Worldwide coverage
Each piece included on the policy is protected, regardless of location.
- Care, custody and control
Take items home on loan before finalizing the purchase and know they’re protected.
- Collections as collateral
We can insure artwork used as a loan guarantee. Usually the lending institution will request to be added to your policy as a “loss payee,” as it would have a vested financial interest in its value.
- Items in transit
Travel with jewelry or move art to a seasonal residence with confidence.
- Wine coverage
Choose one overall coverage limit or insure bottles individually. Features include coverage for spoilage due to mechanical breakdown of climate-control systems, breakage and more.
