We’ve worked with clients across many, many industries, but financial services is comfortably the most recurring. 

Over the past eight years we’ve partnered with banks, wealth managers, mortgage lenders, investment platforms, banking-as-a-service and embedded finance providers, private equity firms, financial advisers, mergers and acquisitions specialists, a shed load of fintechs (a very big shed at that), and more.

Perhaps more than any other sector, financial services organisations understand the pressing need for consistent and effective PR. When money is involved – spending it, borrowing it, investing it, transferring it, you name it – consumers and businesses need absolute trust in the providers they choose. Building a nice website and throwing plenty of cash behind marketing activities will not make prospective customers trust a financial services brand. Appearing in the media, establishing senior leaders as subject matter experts, and creating insightful content that shapes topical debates is what makes the difference.

Our integrated PR and communications strategies elevate brands in front of the audiences that matter. And, humble as we are, we like to think we’re rather good at it.

Thankfully, you don’t need to take our word for it. We’ve just been shortlisted in the ‘PR Agency of the Year’ category at the 2025 Headline Money Awards, which celebrates the best in journalism and comms across financial services media. Decided by an independent panel of media experts, the winner will be decided by the journalists themselves – they get to pick the PR agency they most enjoy working with.

Fingers crossed for the big awards night in July!
