Integrity is everything. Dering conducts Fine Art Transactions in a professional, private, confidential, transparent and honest manner in accordance with internationally accepted business, banking, financial and legal practices.

Dering respects each Principal’s confidentiality, privacy and anonymity.

Dering’s goal is to manage a Fine Art Asset Business Transaction seamlessly and transparently — with equal access for Principals to all relevant data.

Dering only works directly with Transaction Principals (Seller and Buyer), their Attorneys, or a Principal’s verifiable Authorized Business Representative (“Mandate”).

Dering does not negotiate with Intermediary Brokers except as a “Referral Party”.

Dering’s priority is protecting Principal Parties, the Fine Art Assets, the Financial Assets and the Business Transaction itself, especially if attempts of non-professional conduct or outside illegal activities may be a concern.
