State Street Global Advisors launches a bold new sustainable investing campaign

19 September 2024

State Street Global Advisors (SSGA) is in the spotlight for sustainable investing with its latest campaign from the Living team. A collaborative approach that underscores SSGA’s renewed commitment to sustainable investing that resonates with institutional clients and financial intermediaries across the EMEA region.

Shifting perspectives on sustainable investing
In the crowded ESG landscape, SSGA knew that it had to stand out. SSGA partnered with Living to develop a campaign that not only cuts through the noise of competitors' campaigns, but also visually engages and inspires its target audience. We needed to shift what sustainability could visually look like while retaining the essence of its brand identity.

A visual journey
The entire campaign centred around a thorough research survey of 300 asset owners across EMEA and their perspectives on ESG investments in the present and future. The survey is filled with hard-hitting information that SSGA’s audience would find useful, but knowing that its useful and showing that its useful are two entirely different matters.

To catch the attention of institutional clients and financial intermediaries in digital spaces, our team introduced dynamic motion graphics, leveraged SSGA’s bolder brand colours, and created striking typographic designs to stand out among the muted, earthy tones of clichéd competitor ESG ads.

Looking toward the future
The success of SSGA’s sustainable investing campaign is already visible across the multiple digital ads, publication inserts, animations, social media postings, and other marketing channels throughout EMEA. Living’s messaging and visual storytelling are also being used as the foundation for other sustainable investing initiatives at SSGA, like its Sustainable Stewardship Service.

We are honoured to have contributed to a campaign that has the ability to create more sustainable solutions in EMEA and across the globe. Explore the campaign’s landing page and download your own copy of the report here.
