Robert Read, Head of Art and Private Clients at specialist insurer Hiscox, comments on the robbery from the Dresden Green Vault in Germany...

“It’s the festive season and everybody goes shopping - art criminals are no different and at this time of year jewellery and works of art which contain a significant amount of precious metals and stones are often targeted. The awful theft in Dresden this morning shows just that. The thieves now face a major logistical nightmare trying to transform their ill-gotten loot into clean money and that process will offer detectives the best way to track them down. Let’s hope that they succeed and a great museum gets back what is rightly theirs.”
