In with the new
Bank Windhoek's refreshed corporate identity is designed to resonate deeply within the banking market.
To kick off the New Year, on Monday, 20 January 2025, Bank Windhoek announced the launch of its refreshed corporate identity, a bold step forward reflecting the brand’s evolution and
commitment to staying relevant in an ever-changing financial landscape. The new identity, which came into effect this month, introduces updated colour palettes, patterns, fonts, and
iconography, showcasing a progressive and dynamic look that builds on the brand’s legacy.
Bank Windhoek’s executive officer of marketing and corporate communication services, Jacquiline Pack, said that the heart of the redesign is the transformation of the iconic “W” into
a versatile and multidimensional symbol representing innovation and forward-thinking. Pack added that the “W” now adapts to various patterns and dimensions, providing flexibility and
vibrancy across platforms while maintaining a cohesive brand presence.
“A key highlight of the refreshed identity is the reintroduction of the icon on a white flag, positioning it as the hero element of the brand. This deliberate move ensures the icon takes
centre stage, symbolising a clean, bold, and modern approach that resonates with the brand’s core values,” said Pack. “The redesign of the brand portal further reinforces this fresh look,
creating a visually dynamic and user-friendly space that embodies the essence of progressiveness and creativity.”
Asked why the Bank is rebranding, Pack responded that brands must evolve to maintain relevance, especially in a world where consumer expectations and market dynamics are
constantly shifting. "Our new identity reflects our dedication to innovation while honouring the trust and love our customers have placed in us over the past 43 years.”
Pack said Bank Windhoek is excited about the future and that the refreshed corporate identity is designed to resonate deeply with the banking market. "It celebrates the brand's beloved
elements while embracing a future-focused outlook," she said.
The new corporate identity will be rolled out in phases over the next three months to ensure a seamless transition across all touch points. "This phased approach allows the Bank to maintain
consistency while ensuring that every element is thoughtfully introduced to its stakeholders," said Pack.
