Meet the Borro Team | Borro

The Borro team brings together decades of thought leadership from the disciplines of collateral lending and luxury asset valuation. When you trust Borro with a watch, handbag, vehicle, or piece of jewelry, the specialists who assess it have spent careers in those specific markets — not generalists applying standard formulas.

Specialist Expertise by Asset Category

Borro’s appraisal team is organized by asset category, reflecting the reality that luxury asset valuation is a specialized discipline within each market. A watch appraiser and a handbag appraiser operate in fundamentally different knowledge domains — the secondary market dynamics, authentication markers, condition standards, and collector preferences that drive value are entirely distinct between categories.

Watch specialists: Borro’s watch appraisers are active participants in the secondary watch market, tracking live pricing across Chrono24, Watchfinder, Phillips, Christie’s, and Sotheby’s. They understand reference-level pricing distinctions — the difference in value between a Rolex GMT-Master II “Pepsi” and a “Batman” of the same generation, or why a Patek Philippe Aquanaut in a specific dial configuration commands a premium over a standard example.

Handbag and accessories specialists: Borro’s handbag team monitors Vestiaire Collective, The RealReal, Fashionphile, and auction results in real time. They authenticate handbags using both specialist knowledge and, for borderline cases, third-party authentication services. They understand the condition gradations that matter to Hermès collectors — the difference between honest patina and damage — and how the beat-up bag trend of 2026 affects condition assessments for vintage pieces.

Automotive appraisers: Borro’s vehicle specialists track dealer networks, auction results from Barrett-Jackson and RM Sotheby’s, and private sale comparables. They understand the collector premium dynamics created by final-edition combustion models, the depreciation curves of specific supercar brands, and how specification depth affects secondary market value for ultra-luxury sedans.

Jewelry and gemology: Borro’s jewelry team includes trained gemologists who assess diamonds and colored gemstones using GIA grading standards. They evaluate signed pieces from major jewelry houses against current auction comparables and understand the premium dynamics that separate an important Cartier piece from a comparable unsigned equivalent.

Lending Expertise

Alongside the specialist appraisal team, Borro’s lending professionals bring experience structuring collateral loan agreements that work for high-net-worth borrowers with complex needs. Custom term lengths, extension arrangements, and multi-asset loan structures are all within Borro’s operational capability — reflecting a team that has handled 15,000+ transactions across a wide range of borrower situations.

A Team Built for Confidential Service

Every member of the Borro team operates with the discretion that high-net-worth clients expect. Financial information is not shared internally beyond what is necessary to process your loan. Asset information is not used for any purpose other than completing your transaction. The trust that 15,000+ clients have extended to Borro over 15+ years is the result of a team culture built around confidential, professional service.
