BofA says +80% of young, wealthy investors want this asset—now it can be yours.

A 2024 Bank of America survey revealed something incredible: 83% of HNW respondents 43 and younger say they currently own art, or would like to.

Why? After weathering multiple recessions, newer generations say they want to diversify beyond just stocks and bonds. Luckily, Masterworks’ art investing platform is already catering to 60,000+ investors of every generation, making it easy to diversify with an asset that’s overall outpaced the S&P 500 in price appreciation (1995-2023), even despite a recent dip.

To date, each of Masterworks’ 23 sales has individually returned a profit to investors, and with 3 illustrative sales, Masterworks investors have realized net annualized returns of +17.6%, +17.8%, and +21.5%
