CEO Today - January 2022

Future Fine Winein 2022 As we welcome in a new year, itʼs a time to reflect on the past 12 months and look forward to whatʼs next. While 2021 has seen COVID lockdowns, volatile markets and Brexit challenges, itʼs been a stellar year for fine wine investment. Not only are trading volumes up by 40% at luxury fine wine merchant and global trader, Bordeaux Index, they also report that the last 18 months have seen a significant increase in interest, not only from those who have been building their wine portfolios over the longer term but from new investors as well. Indeed, research suggests that around threequarters of fine wine-loving Brits spent more on fine wine over the pandemic, with 46% purchasing fine wine to enjoy at home and a further 27% buying for investment purposes. * The of Matthew O’Connell CEO of LiveTrade
