Knight Frank Luxury Wealth Report presents a unique guide to passion investments for high net worth individuals. The Knight Frank Luxury Investment Index (KFLII) is the most comprehensive guide to luxury investment performance, but it's important to understand how it's compiled and its limitations. The index is based on the weighted performance of ten asset classes, with each class's performance evaluated based on its "collectability" in the超高净值社区. The individual indices are compiled by third-party analysts using different methods, so caution should be exercised when comparing the performance of one asset class to another. The methods used to compile each index are listed below, some of which are specifically created for KFLII:
- Art: The All Art Index is compiled by AMR, which records auction sales each month and uses price data to determine the average price for each artist in the AMR database. The total value of the artist's sales for each data point is calculated, and the index is calculated as 1000 times the sum of the total values for each time point divided by the sum of the total values for the base period. The entire history is smoothed using an index reduction factor. At any time point, the index represents the total value of the artist's sales compared to the total value of the artist's sales in the base period.
- Classic cars: The HAGI Top Index tracks the value of 50 investment-grade cars from 19 brands with a total market value of over £50 billion. Using global and private sale data, the index's weight is determined by the market value characteristics of each model and uses the chain Paasche algorithm method to be updated monthly. historicautogroup.com

- Watches, furniture, handbags: The AMR Antiques, Luxury & Collectibles Index is based on many projects used to represent "categories." The category index represents the average market value of projects in the category relative to the base value in 1975 (or a later date). The database consists of valuations (in pounds) of each project from the base period to the current period, every six or
