Este artículo presenta, desde una perspectiva institucional, la vulnerabilidad a la que se
enfrentan muchos agentes del mundo del arte y su mercado. Defendemos que esta vulnerabilidad se debe a dos factores clave. El primero, es la incertidumbre sobre qué esel arte. El segundo, es el Coeficiente de caja con requisitos bajos. Como se afirma en este artículo, el dinero es un mecanismo útil para reducir la incertidumbre. Sin embargo, el Coeficiente de caja con requisitos bajos no es sostenible y termina en precariedad económica. El enfoque de este artículo es teórico y presenta conclusiones de forma convincente y generalizada. La principal
conclusión de este texto es que un sistema económico sustentado en unidades monetarias vinculadas a recursos estándar podría disminuir los agentes dentro del mundo del arte y su mercado. No obstante, dichos agentes podrían desarrollar su actividad en una situación más óptima.
