Well, I think we are tending towards westernization and not creating a brand of our own. Canara bank did very well once in its business upon a time I think, all it was supposed to do, to be in the competition, was to adopt the newer technologies and improve its customer service rather than improving its looks !!!

As a classical beauty of re-branding, look at Godrej, Bajaj or Tata logos

All I am trying to say, a company has a tradition, we must take it along with us. We just cant be following the crowd all the time, we must lead it as well

Why do you say that Rajesh, I think it loks fresh. Or do you mean old brand must be left to dfie a natural death. You comment seems to be highly prejudiced and personal. Possibly because you dont come from that background. As a marketing person I am aware of the need to revive brands – and canara bank is a very good as an example and agree with murthy. You sound like one of the many unhappy and uninformed reporters of kannada dailies that do not understand words like brand and strategy.

Dear Canara Bank,
You look awful after surgery.
You at least looked old in your old age. Now you look stupid…

I feel the old emblem and logo had more meaning and value when compared to the new one…

We have to compliment Canara Bank whole heartedly for taking the initiative to bring in a new brand identity, which is very modern and meaningful. Banks exist because of their relationship with their customers and the new brand identity aptly brings out the concept. The colours are also very catchy. The new boards at Hudson circle and their head office is awesome. Well done. Canara Bank.
