The art world is in full expansion; there’s never been as many artists, dealers, fairs and prizes as there are today. Increasingly, distinguishing between pure information and clutter is primordial in order to provide authoritative information.

At the same time, the increasing financialization of the art world requires access to quantified information, the need for which is driven by the arrival of new collectors whose fortunes were made in the tech and finance industries. Last but not least, financial institutions are more and more aware that art has become an essential element of their clients’ fortunes, one that can no longer be ignored.
