What we did
Rebranding
Unlike any other success story in the Mexican financial system, Monex—originally founded as Divisas Monex in 1985—is now a financial group that has quadrupled its capital, a powerhouse with a brokerage house, a bank, and leading international subsidiaries located in the world’s major financial centers.
Over the last decade,
Monex has gradually
shifted from currency
exchange to a
diversification
strategy; from offering
a single product to
multiple products; from
a single company to a
financial group; from a
Mexican company to a
global one.
Based on these concepts,
Ideograma found that
Monex has always built
“bridges of value,”
connecting the
importance of its
clients and their
companies,
collaborators, partners,
governments, and
financial markets to the
rest of the world. Over
the last decade, Monex
has gradually shifted
from currency exchange
to a diversification
strategy; from offering
a single product to
multiple products; from
a single company to a
financial group; from a
Mexican company to a
global one.
With this brand idea, we
inspired the rest of
Monex’s new identity; we
took the iconic “O” from
Monex and transformed it
into a portal, an
efficient access
point—or a
peephole—through which
the most important
transactions happen.
With a color palette
inspired by Monex’s
signature blues, we
communicate formality
without losing a touch
of modernity and
dynamism. The same
photographic style
reinforces the three key
concepts of its
narrative: building
bridges between plans
and realities, business
goals and corporate
growth; the value of
relationships and the
talent of the people
connected to Monex; and
dynamism, reflected in
the diversity of
solutions they offer to
close the gap between
their clients and their
goals, helping them
reach their objectives
faster and more
efficiently.
