Matis structures and offers exclusive investment offers focused on investments in contemporary art. 
‍

The company identifies key trends in the art market to invest in works by the most significant 20th-century artists. By issuing convertible bonds that can be converted into shares, Matis provides private investors the opportunity to co-invest in acquisition opportunities typically reserved for art market professionals. 

With a license granted by the Financial Markets Authority, Matis is authorized to offer these investment opportunities across Europe.

Additionally, Matis partners with specialized art galleries to manage the acquired works, entrusting them for resale with the aim of achieving a non-guaranteed target horizon of 2 years.

‍

Investing in contemporary art carries a risk of financial loss and illiquidity if we are unable to sell our work at a fair market value.

Investing in our investment offers implies acceptance of these risks by our investors.

Legally, we are entitled to take up to 5 years to sell our works. We target an investment horizon of 6 to 36 months, with 80% of works in our market selling within two years of consignment. While we aim to follow this timeline, the sale depends on collector interest. 

‍

After 5 years, securities can be converted at a 1:1 rate by a majority decision of bondholders, forcing the sale at auction, though liquidity is not guaranteed.

‍

The artistic movements targeted by Matis are as follows:

• Modern art, created by artists from the first half of the 20th century;
• Contemporary art, created by artists after 1945.

‍

These two artistic movements account for nearly 80% of the global art market exchanges. In its acquisition strategy, Matis thus prioritizes works created by emblematic artists of the 20th century due to the dominance of these two artistic trends, a guarantee of liquidity and dynamism in the art market.

The non-fungible token (NFT) is a certificate behind which a digital work is authenticated via the NFT.

‍

Matis does not intend to invest in digital works as they represent a recent trend in the art market, emerging from the 1990s. Instead, Matis proposes to invest in physical works, created by major 20th-century artists, recognized by museum institutions, purchased by collectors, and promoted by international galleries. Their artistic production spans the 20th century, and it is possible to precisely measure the volume and evolution of the sale/resale value of their works over several decades, beyond ephemeral trends.

‍

Matis proposes to invest in works by major 20th-century artists, recognized by the world's leading museums, promoted by leading galleries, and with a broad collector base worldwide. These are so-called "blue chip" artists, whose work value often exceeds hundreds of thousands of euros, making them hardly accessible to most investors.

‍

Notable among the targeted artists are Yayoi Kusama, Andy Warhol, Yves Klein, and François-Xavier Lalanne, all of whom have left an indelible mark on art history. As their works become increasingly rare on the market, their value continues to rise, reinforcing a strong scarcity effect.

‍

Matis defines the major current and future trends of the art market and focuses its analysis on the 100 most fundamental artists of the 20th century. Matis then sources its works from art market professionals, such as galleries, dealers, and auction companies. Through this privileged network, our team identifies works we consider undervalued and acquire them. The works are selected for their ability to be quickly resold through major international galleries, specialists in the concerned artist, within a target horizon of two years, and are purchased only after validation by an acquisition committee.

Matis consigns its works to leading galleries, specialists in the concerned artist, capable of promoting the work and valuing it to resell it under the best market conditions. Matis thus collaborates with the world's leading modern and contemporary art galleries (in Europe, the United States, Asia, and the Middle East).

Artworks selected by Matis for investment are insured from their acquisition to their sale, against theft or destruction.

To invest in a Matis investment offer, you must create an account on the investment space app.matis.club by following this procedure:

• If you have a referral code: enter the code directly on this page and follow the different steps;
• If you do not have a referral code: complete this entry form on this page to obtain a referral code.

After your registration, an appointment will be proposed with a member of our sales team, after which you will have direct online access to all information about our various open investment offers.

‍

You can then invest in one or more Matis investment offers directly from your online space, after submitting your identity documents and completing an adequacy test. You can validate your investment order, and sign your subscription form.

Subscribing to a Matis investment offer results in the acquisition of convertible bonds into shares.
‍

After your subscription, you will be regularly informed of news concerning your investment, on topics such as:

• the transportation and valuation of the work;
• the consignment date of the work to our partner galleries;
• the exhibition of the work at contemporary art fairs and other artistic events.

Once the work is resold, within a target horizon of two years, the invested amounts and the profit made on the resale of the work (not guaranteed) will be directly transferred to your bank account.

Investment in our investment offers is open to individuals or legal entities, French tax residents or not.

‍

However, Matis reserves the right to decline certain subscriptions if customer due diligence or fund traceability requirements are not satisfactorily met, in accordance with regulatory obligations.

‍

The simplified joint stock company holding the artwork issues convertible bonds into shares.

‍

Matis uses a non-conversion premium mechanism to transfer the capital gain issued from the sale of the work by the holding to our investors, limiting the tax impact of this gain.

‍

A stock setup would have been possible but would have led to a double taxation system that we wanted to avoid.
‍

This structure has been reviewed and validated by a law firm advising us on the matter.

Matis is remunerated exclusively by its investor clients and only at the time of investment.

‍

Each investment is subject to entry fees, divided as follows:

• 5% commission on the invested amount for the provision of order reception and transmission services
• 5% commission on the invested amount for the provision of investment services

‍

In addition, Matis receives 20% of any profit generated on a investment offer, based on the performance achieved.

‍

All Internal Rates of Return* (IRR) and target returns presented in our documentation are net of these fees.

‍

*The Internal Rate of Return (IRR) measures the profitability of an investment over a given period. It takes into account the evolution of the value of shares and distributed capital gains over the period, as well as subscription and management fees supported by the investor.

Matis investment offers are available with a minimum investment of €20,000.

The convertible bonds into shares offered by Matis are subject to the tax regime of securities. Capital gains are thus subject to a flat tax of 30% for individuals, (17.2% in case of exemption), and taxed on corporate income tax or income tax in the case of certain subscriptions for civil companies choosing this tax regime.

These investments are not included in the taxable base of the IFI (French Wealth Tax).
