At the Economic forum in Davos called for strict regulation of the art market, so it is not turned into the shadow market of money laundering.

This is a Professor at new York University's Nouriel Roubini/Nouriel Roubini, who gained fame after his prediction of the mortgage crisis in the United States, called for stricter regulation of the art market. In his opinion, the anonymity of buyers of works of art may lead to the use of the art market for money laundering, tax evasion, insider trading and price manipulation: "while art is a temple of beauty, the art market is full of shady deals. This should be correct otherwise it will be for a long time undermined".

art really is a great tool for "cleaning", capital preservation, transfer, inheritance, tax evasion, etc.
Clearly these trends will reach the Russian Federation.

Until China came and the Chinese authorities have begun to take seriously the numerous abuses in the art market.

One of the official Chinese Newspapers attacked government officials, using the art market to launder bribes. Vice-Governor of Jiangxi province sold their "works of calligraphy for a large sum, although their artistic value was close to zero. Later he was executed on charges of corruption.
The use of the art market to hide corruption and bribery contributes to the fact that it is not always possible to accurately determine the cost of a work of art, and their authenticity is not easy to check. Such shadow diagrams have become so popular among Chinese officials that in some Chinese provinces they took leadership positions in local associations calligraphy. In addition to calligraphy in the shadow schemes used and modern painting, when an official places on the art market a certain picture, and interested buyer immediately buys it at a highly inflated price.

You should not have linked these two authors. This Basquiat lyasnetsya with a crash , and the sound of the lost fragments of the states .

Probably still not. This Basquiat has a number of advantages: he is an American , little black , a drug addict and died young, such a set is no longer anybody. So he - the legend ( untwisted , of course) , and will be bought amerikosy probably always .

Probably still not.

It still has one indisputable advantage - he does not know how to draw.

That is, do you think that this is not the real purchase, and mafia money launderer ?

The notion that money launderers only "mafia" , as if to say better ... cartoon . )

I do not in any way deny the positive dynamics of the art market , especially given the more or less obvious , if not the objective of the investment attractiveness of the market in general. This has already been a lot written , and even the most cursory analysis seems to be said in favor of this kind of investment . Moreover, the work of art as a commodity unit , there are a number of other characteristic qualities that seem to increase its investment attractiveness. In other words , works of art , purchased /selected with " knowingly " and /or in accordance with specific investment strategy elaborated by far contribute to the preservation and /or augmentation of capital, at least on a par with the more common ( traditional ) investment instruments .

However , lately , it would be frivolous to dismiss the debate on the use of the art market ( at least in some of its segments) in order to deliberately dubious financial manipulations , including money laundering . Moreover, for example in Europe (to a greater extent than in the U.S. for example , as far as I know) , have moved from talk to action, trying to introduce all sorts of control mechanisms traditionally opaque , I would even say , actively masquerading art market.
For example , the fact that there is someone there , and the New York Times touched on this subject, speaks for itself . Here is the article where , just featured our " weight in diamonds " designer drug addict prodigy Basquiat :



P.S. This "theme " is rooted in a program called "Advancing American Art " developed by the CIA in 1947 and is funded from the state budget dollars. The fact that we are now discussing , namely the phenomenon of post-war American art ( by and large ) is a logical continuation of the propaganda of U.S. policy in the sphere of culture of the Cold War , the modified /amended under the current political economic realities. That is to say , reap the benefits of a half-century of labor.

Free capital (liquidity <! - ~ 5 ~ -> ) is concentrated in the hands of today financiers - they wash and then nothing.
And the strange way of laundered - insertion in advance investistrumenty questionable . And if tomorrow will open that the king is naked ? Is not it easier to invest in something that is considered reliable? ( Blue chips <! - ~ 6 ~ -> ) .
But here with the analysis - that all Hurst slows down growth (which is true ) , but what it should have been , chose a Hirst - and washed to health . No, menzhuyutsya guys with Hudson , who was not Herstushka .

In my opinion , talking about " money laundering " on the purchase of works of art - it's a very very narrow-minded nonsense people away from the topic, trying to understand their umishkom and somehow himself and also explain why these " bourgeois buy daub for such denzhischi ".
