After working in asset finance in nearly two decades, a version of COIN founded in 2016. This new venture was built on a solid foundation of industry knowledge, expertise, and a wealth of contacts. Bringing all the best aspects of luxury asset lending to COIN, honing a discreet, white-glove service, tailored to each individual client. Leaving behind the elitism and ambiguity associated with luxury asset lending, and adopted a fresh approach, based on transparency and collaboration.COIN’s reputation as a trusted lender grew, and more word-of-mouth referrals came in. Rather than employing more people, which would mean raising prices, we have sought to streamline the operation. Finding a way to automate the loan process, making it quicker and more convenient for the client, while maintaining a personal and premium service. Such a way didn’t exist. So Ian decided to build it.Launching later this year, the COIN platform will empower anyone with a luxury asset to free up their money, from the comfort of their own home. Show less

If you’re looking to sell, loan or advice against a work of art or high value item, you need a professional who understands both the market and the industry. That’s me. Hello. Good to meet you.

So you could say I have learnt a few things on my way.I joined NBSP in Mayfair all the way back in 1999, and launched the company’s art loans department in 2006. Yeah, over 10 years ago. I can’t quite believe it’s been that long either! Twentieth century, contemporary and modern British art is my main area of expertise, however with my years of experience, knowledge and private network I am advise an accurate market value on anything from a 14th century madonna and child to piece to a piece of period jewellery, and everything in-between.
