Climate activists' attacks on some of the world's most precious paintings have added to insurers' worries about the threat to art from climate change itself, concerns seen as leading to higher art insurance premiums. | News24_Business

The risk of climate change to artworks will likely drive insurance premiums, according to insurers and brokers.

The Leopold Museum has said the Klimt was not damaged, but did not respond to a request for further comment. "What we worry about is if it spreads to other protest groups who are less genteel and will take a less caring attitude." The art insurance market globally earns around $750 million in premiums. Premium rates rose by around 5% in 2020 and 2021 and remained steady this year but insurers expect them to rise.Losses and levels of insurance availability tend to dictate insurance premiums.
