Description
Valuation Summary 📝
To ensure the competitiveness of the investment, we conducted a thorough verification of the purchase price by analyzing recent private market and auction transactions. Our analysis confirmed that the price offered, inclusive of all associated fees, is highly competitive. To estimate the potential ROI, we used the annualized price increases of the Artprice Index of Tracey Emin over the past 7 years. For our conservative scenario, we assumed the value of the print would grow at the rate of Swiss inflation, reflecting a defensive approach. In the balanced scenario, we assume an 80% probability of realizing a 12.9% (CAGR of the past 7 years at auction) annual return for the next 2 years. Finally, in the ambitious scenario, we assume a 100% probability of realizing a 12.9% (CAGR of the past 7 years at auction) annual return for the next 2 years. These potential returns over the next three years are further enhanced in both the balanced and ambitious scenarios by the 21% discount at which these beautiful works are offered compared to the current secondary market prices for a complete set of these prints.

Exit Options at Maturity 🚪
We will manage the exit strategy in collaboration with our expert ZURANI on behalf of our investors, ensuring the best possible outcome based on market conditions at the time. Depending on the prevailing market situation, the asset will be sold to a private collector or offered as single lots at an auction for contemporary art. An auction is considered if the price has developed to the point where the minimum bid matches the market value and there is high demand for works by the artist. Both options are carefully considered, and we will choose the one that maximizes the return for our investors.

Why Invest in This Asset? 💎
Tracey Emin is one of the most recognized contemporary British artists, known for her emotionally charged, autobiographical works. As a key figure in the Young British Artists (YBA) movement, her art explores themes of love, loss, and personal memory, making her work both culturally significant and highly collectable.
The "These Feelings Were True" series encapsulates Emin’s artistic essence. As a limited edition set of eight prints, each piece is hand-signed and carries the authenticity of her deeply personal storytelling. With only 50 editions available worldwide, this investment secures a rare and desirable asset.
Market demand for Emin’s work continues to grow, with her paintings and prints consistently achieving strong returns at auction. Her 2018 painting "But You Never Wanted Me" sold for $914,400 at Sotheby’s in 2024, reinforcing her status as a blue-chip artist. As Emin’s presence in major museum collections strengthens, her market credibility is expected to increase further.
Additionally, this acquisition comes at an attractive discount of 35% to current gallery prices, meaning investors enter at a below-market rate, providing immediate value. With Emin’s continued influence, limited-edition works like this set are likely to see further appreciation, driven by strong collector interest and institutional support.
This investment offers the perfect balance of exclusivity, cultural importance, and financial potential, making it an exceptional opportunity in the contemporary art market.
