Abstract: Some specific features of banking products (they are abstract, time-related, immaterial, in need of explanation, legally standardized, imitable, and require a minimum of trust) make their marketing quite challenging. Good branding seems to be a solution to this problem. There is a lot of competitive pressure on the banking market. It is very important for a lending institution to be properly positioned in itscompetitive environment. A prerequisite for such positioning and differentiation is an integrated, consistent communication, which reinforces the recognition value of the company. A well thought-out slogan, representing the brand features and speaking to customers’ emotions, is an important component of successful branding and communication strategy of financial institutions.
