Through a rich and diverse career spanning over 25 years as an investment broker, Hans Olof Savasen has built up an unbeatable reputation in Sweden and in Monaco. It is his particular finesse at matching a product to a market that has earned him this reputation; one that has led him through the markets of fine art, precious gems, and also Mallorcan property promotions for the whole world market... "Mallorca Invest"

Investment broker, art dealer, diamond expert... a man for all seasons, and certainly if you believe that finances change as quickly as the seasons, and therefore the need for good financial control. Savasen's background is so rich and diverse that comparisons or a common thread become difficult; though looking deeper, there is something that shines through strongly: Hans Olof Savasen is a master at matching a product to an available market. And, if you ask any financial or marketing expert worth his salt, you'd be told that this single ability virtually encompasses all that they deal with.

Matching a market to a product, though, is not a knack easily gained, and Savasen developed his expertise in probably one of the hardest markets of all: European fine art. Tastes in art, the needs of buyers, trends in the market, and the final demands of vendors, are so difficult to match, that the dealer needs to have a completely `movable' knowledge of the market. Which artists are `in', what prices can be asked, what dealers are looking for a particular product, and the realistic price range that can be attached to protect both the dealer and the end buyer who's making the investment, albeit looking for a return over a long period.

Savasen's expertise was developed during his career as a photographer, in which he was continually on the fringe of the art world. Over the years he developed this talent of matching buyers to products but, as he explained, the difficulty of art as a pure investment is that buyers become attached to paintings, and so aren't willing to offload them when perhaps the market dictates that it's sensible to. Savasen himself has become pleasantly trapped by this attachment to certain paintings, which is why the walls of his home are all but covered with valuable art, including pieces from Picasso, Goetz, Tobiasse and Chagall.

Because of this, Savasen was asked by many of the people he handled substantial art investments for to provide products for investment that were less personal and so could be more readily offloaded onto the available market. The diamond and precious gem market was, at this time, offering the highest investment returns, and through several years and countless transactions, Savasen also built up an expertise in this market, to the extent that he was featured strongly on Swedish TV and the press.

The nickname 'Mr. Diamond', in fact, stayed with Savasen when he expanded and moved his investment service to Monaco, and his experience and expertise have now brought him to open his Diamond-investment-business on to Internet.
