Art Market & Cultural Impact Reports
Since 2002, TEFAF has been involved in providing a program of independent research into the art market. TEFAF’s Art Market Reports provide an opportunity to shine a light onto an area of the market that is under-researched or in the process of change, and are considered an industry standard.
Alongside detailed reports on crucial issues in this sphere, the TEFAF Summit was established in 2024 as a platform for discussions and collaboration and to seek awareness and promote actionable solutions in art and culture.
Deloitte TEFAF Economic Impact Report 2026
The Economic Impact of TEFAF on Maastricht report undertaken by Deloitte Luxembourg highlights the substantial economic and social value generated by TEFAF Maastricht for the Maastricht region of the Netherlands. The findings demonstrate how the world’s leading art fair acts as a powerful economic engine, driving job creation, regional investment, and sustained economic activity. The report underscores the vital role that cultural initiatives play in strengthening local economies and delivering long-term impact beyond the fair itself.
The report will be presented at the TEFAF Summit on Monday 16 March and will be available online from that date.

How do art dealers finance their day-to-day business activities? What sources are currently being used and what types of funding are available?

These are aspects of the art business which are seldom discussed, hence very little information or data currently exists on this topic.
