Sankore Investments is a wealth management firm that runs Nigeria’s only “Private Banking as a Service” platform offering investment strategy, products, advice, and technology to the clients of Private Banks.

As the company looks to celebrate its 10th anniversary in 2020, We were tasked with developing a detailed brand strategy for Sankore targeted at positioning the company for the next decade as it eyed a big expansion move.

Our Solution

At the discovery phase, we conducted an extensive internal brand audit, engaging different teams: from the CEO to Legal, Product development, technology teams, Project Management, and HR. Insights from this process helped us develop a corporate brand archetype, clarify and shape a bold brand vision, positioning strategy, voice, and messaging strategy. A detailed brand book that captures all of this and serves as a roadmap was produced to help internal communications and product teams.
