Summary
Anchorage Asset Management AG used its participation in Apex Invest Europe 2026 in Zurich to introduce the Anchorage Art Fund to professional investors, according to a company press release distributed via EIN Presswire on October 28, 2026. The Fund received authorisation in Liechtenstein only four weeks before the event, and the presentation marked its first major introduction to the international private-markets community.
Apex Invest organised the gathering at The Dolder Grand on October 27-28. The forum brought together institutional investors, family offices, fund managers and private-market specialists to discuss the investment landscape and the themes shaping capital allocation. The press release does not disclose fund size, target returns, minimum commitments or fee terms.
According to the release, the key differentiator of Anchorage's proposition is a structure that allows the Fund to hold artworks directly instead of through special purpose vehicles. The company argues this places the artworks at the centre of the investment structure and sets the approach apart from models relying on intermediary entities. The release presents this as the core of its case for art as an alternative asset class.
The company described participation in the event as an opportunity to discuss art's role within broader alternative investment strategies. Because the source is a company-issued press release with no independent reporting or disclosed performance data, the claims about the structure and the Fund's positioning reflect Anchorage's own characterisation.
