Into the light
For State Street
Challenge
State Street was stuck with a reputation for scale and stability that made it seem slow to react. Deal cycles were stretching out to over 18 months and several multi-million-dollar back-office management opportunities were stuck in its pipeline.
Insight
Because the back office is functional and ‘boring’, banks simply weren’t seeing the value it holds.
Idea
We cut through the conventional finance cityscape with State Street’s vivid blue, illuminating part of a skyscraper. Using sunlit imagery, subtle wordplay and an optimistic tone, we showed the back office (and the brand) in a whole new light.
