To launch the new partnership, MercerBell created a supercharged campaign for Equity Options, entitled ‘Investment Heroes in Disguise’. The 30-second animated TVC and integrated advertising campaign uses classic super-hero movie trailers to empower investors about genuine options: Condor, Butterfly and Split Strike.

 

Says Julie Dormand, managing director, MercerBell: “ASX is one of the principal global players in the financial markets and we’re delighted to be working together. Already we’ve created some stand-out work, and the new Investment Heroes campaign is testament to the beginnings of a great partnership.”
