Dealers and collectors of art are often faced with complicated options when it comes to financing, and owning illiquid assets means funding options are as rigid as the works themselves. On top of this, collectors frequently collect across categories; not only owning art, but everything from automobiles to property, each of which has necessitated its own firm or advisor to manage. That’s where Leyster Capital comes in.

Established in 2020, international lending firm Leyster Capital maintains a competitive advantage in the field as it specializes in tailoring financing options and solutions to a diverse range of clients’ needs. And rather than dealing with different firms for each class of asset, clients can seek financing across a broad range of collection types all in one place, lending efficiency and peace of mind to the process.

Leyster Capital Founder and Managing Partner Eileen Burke said, “We see integration as the future—and we solve people’s financial needs by lending against a full range of assets, from art and other collectibles to real estate and financial assets, whether those assets are in the United States, Europe, or Asia. I’m really excited to have a great platform that allows us to meet asset owners where they are.”

For those within the art world, this could look like leveraging gallery inventory, personal art collections, or gallery spaces themselves to gain the flexibility that liquidity offers. Partnering with qualified teams that collectively reflect decades of expertise working with art and art-related assets, makes Leyster Capital a premier choice to work with. And not only do they work with Modern and contemporary art, but they finance sculpture and Old Masters as well—and can often increase loan sizes compared to pure art lending firms by including other assets in the collateral package.

Together, the opportunities and services offered by Leyster Capital are worth exploring, as they represent an innovative type of flexible, bespoke financing solutions.
