NEW YORK — Distinguished Programs, a leading national insurance program manager, has extended its Fine Art & Collectibles insurance program to California. The program offers full limits, including earthquake coverage with capacity up to $125 million for single risks. This expansion provides comprehensive coverage for both personal collections and commercial clients, including collectors, galleries, museums, corporate collections, municipalities and institutions.
“While others are retreating from California, we are committed to providing top-tier coverage in the state,” said Nonie Tompkins, vice president of the program’s western region. “Our earthquake coverage and high-capacity limits are critical to making us a trusted partner for brokers and clients alike.”
The Fine Art & Collectibles program provides tailored solutions, including primary and excess risk options, seamless claims handling, and specialized services such as collection management and preservation advice.
“Our goal is to provide peace of mind to clients, whether they are insuring a private collection or a museum collection,” said Patrick Drummond, president of the Fine Art & Collectibles group at Distinguished. “We’re proud to deliver not only comprehensive coverage but also the expertise and services that help brokers meet the evolving needs of the market.”
