Our expertise…
Corinth brings familiarity with the relevant regulatory and international legal landscape combined with knowledge of the realities and pressures that art market participants face. Our rare combination of legal, regulatory and art market experience is what sets Corinth apart.
Unlike most AML consultants, Corinth has worked closely with some of the most renown art market specialists and businesses across the globe, granting us an in-depth understanding of the difficulties that our clients face when implementing AML requirements.
Having participated in the British Art Market Federation and having been a member of the Board of The Art Loss Register, Corinth appreciates the different realities faced by small and large galleries as well as regional and global auction houses.
We have law degrees from institutions in the US, UK and Germany. Most importantly, Corinth has gained valuable regulatory experience from working at the UK Financial Regulator and from participating in bi-weekly calls with the UK Art Market regulator. These, in combination with our wide-ranging art market experience, help understand key issues, identify red flags across the business and find the optimal solution for our clients .

We at Ewbank Auctions were delighted with Corinth Consulting. After a free initial consultation, we signed up and were able to leave all the work to Rena and her expert team. There is no time to lose because AML is mandatory and on current timetables must be set up by June 2021.

The Fine Art GroupI have known Rena Neville since the time we were both in private practice in New York, following which she flourished in her multi-faceted roles at Sotheby’s, most notably overseeing its engagement with the range of complex regulatory and other compliance issues that arise in the international art market. And as Chairman successively of two major artist foundations, I continue to have a deep awareness of the operations of that market. Throughout, I have known Rena to be an astute and strategic thinker, holding to the highest ethical standards and likewise commanding great respect in her profession.

Jonathan Green
Richard GreenI have worked with Rena Neville over many years and I have always been impressed by her extensive practical knowledge of the art market and its legal and regulatory framework.
Anthony Brown, Chairman
British Art Market FederationRena Neville was a key figure within the firm during my time as a non executive Director and Deputy Chairman of Sotheby’s [1994-2019]. She was completely reliable and a pleasure to work with. For me as a layman in the arcane but crucial world of money laundering compliance, she had the unusual ability to make a complicated issue simple, but without removing the essential nuances. Based on my knowledge of Rena Neville I would be very happy to seek her professional advice.
