Global Brand Refresh

BBVA, a world leader in banking across South America, Spain, and the Southern United States reached out to us looking to establish brand consistency across their regional markets. Our challenge was to create a unified brand that resonated with customers across cultural, socio-demographic, and geographical differences. Inclusivity as its core, our brand personality sought to bring to life the new brand purpose:

 

“Our purpose is to bring the age of opportunity to everyone.”

Inclusive of all customers in all geographies

Multiple research engagements globally helped drive the development of core personas that encompassed our customer needs and values.
