Art as an Asset Class – From Investment Value to Fractional Ownership & Tok

Art is often seen as decoration or a luxury reserved for elites. But could it also be an alternative investment?

In this session, Ms. Christine Lok, a young collector and art advisor, shares her perspective on the evolving art market and why people buy art today — from personal passion and cultural branding to social status and long-term value preservation. Together with Mr. Chung Ting Fai, they will explore how collectors approach art beyond aesthetics, and how a new generation of buyers is reshaping the market. Attendees will gain practical insights into viewing art not just as beautiful objects, but also as meaningful assets.
