Who We Are

Trusted Advisors to the Best Brands in Finance

Vested is a global marketing and communications consulting firm trusted by the best brands in finance. From banks to asset managers and fintechs, from London to New York and Toronto, Vested supports financial marcomms leaders as they tell the complex and fascinating story of money and its impact on our lives.

We are a collective of strategists, experts, creatives, former investment professionals and financial reporters, advising CEOs, CMOs and CCOs on their brand at the highest levels.

As the only marketing firm to work with FINRA, the FCA in the US and the CFA in the UK to train our teams, the only PR group with a Chief Economist and the only brand consultancy with its own VC fund, our clients rely on Vested’s financial acumen and trust us to deliver creative outcomes and outsized business results.

Clients come to Vested for our integrated approach and our fresh take on communicating even the most complex messages. We’re the first choice for the biggest and best – which is why the world’s two largest financial information providers both trust us to make their data compelling. It’s why two top-ten investment banks have turned to Vested to tell their technology stories. And it’s why key players in the National Market System rely on Vested to explain how they support the fabric of finance. We collaborate with the Museum of American Finance to tell the story of our industry’s past and with leading fintech brands to shape the industry’s future.
