Chief Marketing Officer John McDonald told Reuters, “This is the most we’re investing in the brand since 2016. This is about driving the business towards its growth ambitions.”
“We want to make sure prospective customers become more familiar with UBS so they’re more likely to consider us when it’s time to choose a wealth manager, for instance.”
As per the report, UBS has created a new campaign with advertising firm Publicis Groupe SA PUBGY and brand strategy company Prophet.
According to the report, the global campaign will go live first in Britain and the U.S. from Tuesday before being rolled out to 10 other countries, including Japan, Singapore, Australia and Germany.
