AGENCY INNOVATION IN FINANCIAL MARKETING
Markit Digital's penetration into financial services marketing began with a simple innovation of combining market data content with targeted advertising. This innovation has been used by most retail brokers and asset managers since its inception. Within our continued innovation tradition, we expanded our media buying solutions to new and emerging channels such as connected TV and digital out-of-home media. This expansion has allowed for buying with market agility and a focus on lifetime value metrics such as AUM growth. Our exclusive concentration on financial services has allowed us to create turn-key and innovative solutions within the category.
AGENCY HIGHLITES
Dynamic Video Solutions
Our dynamic video solutions engage customers with data-rich narratives that serve new content in a specific, controlled and precise manner. Video is a prevalent and primary content delivery method for many companies. Data-driven video allows injection of up-to-the minute data into an animated video for the consumer. This results in a more relevant, personalized, and engaging experience. Video campaigns utilizing a dynamic solution show very strong performance with completion rates exceeding 75%, an increase of approximately 15% over prior, non-dynamic video campaigns.
Technical Solutions & People-based Expertise
We see a 35% average increase in post-engagement metrics when messaging is delivered in real-time based on market event triggers. Our team has technical solutions and people-based expertise that captures the performance levels of financial markets in real-time with the integration of over 3,000 data feeds. These moments, i.e. heightened interest around specific markets and events relevant to a participant’s own financial interest, have a profound effect on investor sentiment and emotion. We deliver thoughtful and personalized content for advertisers around these events.
