Our strategy work centered around this core idea of financial security, and the new name, Finseca, is the direct product of financial security for all. A single mission-driven message: ‘Financial security for all’ a rallying cry to protect the financial wellbeing of everyone: individuals, families and businesses.

The broader visual identity is built around the shield, with specific crops used as supergraphics on communications materials and the website.
