How easy is it to exit the investment?
As a global market with 200 countries participating in its trade, the Scotch whisky investment market offers high liquidity through a multitude of exit strategies, both domestic and international. With trade levels for whisky growing year-on-year, demand for premium casks has increased significantly resulting in quick and efficient exits when required. Currently, the average execution time for clients cashing in their positions stands at 4.2 days, although this can vary dependent on portfolio size. Commonly, VCL will be able to make a cash bid on the day and clients can have the whole process wrapped up within 48 hours.
For portfolios being brokered on via the international market, VCL have access to a diverse worldwide network of collectors, auction platforms and distilleries and take great care to ensure that all stock positions offered to clients are easily saleable. Such is the demand for high end whisky cask portfolios that clients can expect to receive acceptable offers on their portfolios prior to the conclusion of their intended investment duration.
The primary exit strategies provided by VCL Vintners to our clients include:
THIRD PARTY AUCTION SALES
INTERNAL AUCTION
VCL will soon launch its own online auction serving as an intra-client trading platform introducing exposure to 1,500 potential buyers at any time.
BROKERAGES AND INVESTMENT COMPANIES
VCL provide other companies with whisky cask stock, this becoming an increasingly important aspect of the business model.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS
VCL are approached daily for specific, often super premium, casks and are viewed as the go-to company for casks unavailable on the open market including those from silent distilleries.
CASH BID
VCL are a debt free and cash rich company and can provide an on-the-spot cash bid for casks.
INDEPENDENT BOTTLING
VCL can manage your asset, independently bottle your stock, and trade the bottled stock on both domestically and internationally. This option, ordinarily reserved for ultra-premium assets, can often yield exceptionally high returns.
