Investment management only (planning not offered)

Masterworks Advisers offers several ways to invest in art, each with different fees:

  • Ongoing Advisory Services: 0.10% per year of the value of your art investments. This fee is charged monthly and paid when you sell an artwork.
  • Art Investment Plans (Discretionary): A monthly fee based on your expected total investment amount:
    • Less than $500: $1/month ($12/year)
    • $501 - $2,500: $2/month ($24/year)
    • $2,500+: $4/month ($48/year)
  • Strategy Opportunities (Pilot Program): No advisory fee is currently charged for this service.

Masterworks also earns compensation from the art investments themselves, which reduces your overall returns.
