Willis, a WTW business announced it has partnered with Circle Asia to launch a new art insurance facility designed specifically for individual collectors and art galleries in Asia. The facility is the first of its kind in Asia, combining specialist arts insurance expertise from Willis and Circle’s digital platform to deliver a seamless and cost-effective way to insure fine art, jewellery and specie collections.

Fine art insurance has traditionally required minimum value thresholds or minimum premium commitments from clients. This new facility offers a significantly lower entry premium, giving collectors and galleries easier access to comprehensive coverage through a single, streamlined solution that meets the evolving needs of Asia’s growing art market. Key benefits of the new insurance facility include:

  • Lower minimum premium entry point, making the art insurance accessible to a broad range of collectors and galleries.
  • One comprehensive policy covering all assets, including fine art, jewellery, home contents and building for individual collectors.
  • Bespoke terms and premiums structured to support and enhance the facility’s objectives.
  • End-to-end management by Willis’ Fine Art team via Circle’s digital platform, enabling more efficient communication, full accountability and improved turnaround time compared with conventional process.
  • Tailored to the unique needs of individual arts collectors with best-in-class policy wordings.

The new insurance facility is also ideally positioned to support one-off exhibition and one-off transit coverage, both of which benefit from comprehensive insurance terms and an expedited turnaround.

Fion Ko, Associate Director, Fine Art, Jewellery and Specie, Asia at Willis, said: “Asia’s fine arts market continues to grow rapidly, with the increasing participation of young and affluent collectors, yet insurance solutions have not always kept pace. Clients now expect fast turnaround and efficient service on their coverage and handling of claims.

“Through this partnership with Circle Asia, clients will receive our tailored fine art risk expertise, along with professional advice on prevention and protection. Circle’s digital platform supports our team by improving efficiency, underwriting access and processing speed. These enhancements translate into a faster, more seamless experience for our clients.”

Steve Hutchinson, Head of Corporate Risk & Broking in Hong Kong at Willis, added: “This partnership with Circle Asia enables us to introduce a significantly reduced minimum premium and simplify traditionally complex policy structures, while delivering a high-quality, digitally enabled fine arts solution for our collectors and galleries clients.

“By combining Willis’ specialist arts insurance expertise with Circle Asia, this launch reinforces our commitment to developing innovative, client-centric insurance solutions and expanding our specialty capabilities in Hong Kong, while supporting Circle Asia’s mission to modernise fine arts insurance distribution through technology.”

Julie Quach Co-Regional Director of Circle Asia Ltd said: “This partnership demonstrates the strength that comes from two organisations bringing complementary capabilities together. Our valued collaboration with Willis builds on each other’s expertise, combining their deep knowledge in art and specialty insurance with Circle Asia’s digital infrastructure and technical underwriting strengths.

“This new facility reflects our shared ambition to support a growing market with solutions that enhance confidence, resilience and service quality for collectors and galleries across Asia. Our collaboration is about empowering the art community with protection, insight and service excellence and we are genuinely excited about the possibilities this strengthened partnership opens for the industry.”

Based in Hong Kong, Willis’ Fine Art specialist team provides services to major museums, institutions, auction houses, art dealers, shippers and packers, as well as corporate, private and fine collections of art, antiques and jewellery.

Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be

Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be

The post Why The Green Bay Packers Must Take The Cleveland Browns Seriously — As Hard As That Might Be appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers are off to a 2-0 start. Getty Images The Green Bay Packers are, once again, one of the NFL’s better teams. The Cleveland Browns are, once again, one of the league’s doormats. It’s why unbeaten Green Bay (2-0) is a 8-point favorite at winless Cleveland (0-2) Sunday according to betmgm.com. The money line is also Green Bay -500. Most expect this to be a Packers’ rout, and it very well could be. But Green Bay knows taking anyone in this league for granted can prove costly. “I think if you look at their roster, the paper, who they have on that team, what they can do, they got a lot of talent and things can turn around quickly for them,” Packers safety Xavier McKinney said. “We just got to kind of keep that in mind and know we not just walking into something and they just going to lay down. That’s not what they going to do.” The Browns certainly haven’t laid down on defense. Far from. Cleveland is allowing an NFL-best 191.5 yards per game. The Browns gave up 141 yards to Cincinnati in Week 1, including just seven in the second half, but still lost, 17-16. Cleveland has given up an NFL-best 45.5 rushing yards per game and just 2.1 rushing yards per attempt. “The biggest thing is our defensive line is much, much improved over last year and I think we’ve got back to our personality,” defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz said recently. “When we play our best, our D-line leads us there as our engine.” The Browns rank third in the league in passing defense, allowing just 146.0 yards per game. Cleveland has also gone 30 straight games without allowing a 300-yard passer, the longest active streak in the NFL.…
