PNC Bank has announced Arnold Worldwide, a Havas Creative Group Company, as its integrated marketing and advertising agency of record.
Media strategy and planning will be handled by Havas Media Group as part of the agency’s village model. PNC Bank will leverage this new relationship to increase national brand awareness with strategic marketing, and advertising efforts.
“As we continue to build out our coast-to-coast franchise, PNC Bank has a unique opportunity to further elevate its brand on a national scale,” says Amanda Rosseter, chief communications & brand officer at PNC Bank.
PNC’s national main street bank model, centered on the delivery of big bank capabilities through local connections to customers and communities, is a key differentiator for its brand. The bank’s approach is further bolstered by a national network of branches, innovative technology and a solutions-based approach that aims to move clients forward financially. Arnold and Havas Media’s work will center around creating a unified PNC Bank brand and delivering integrated creative and media across all lines of business.
