New Visual Identity & Brand Positioning

Today, Friday 7 December, we are proud to unveil our new logo, visual identity and a new purpose – Now, for tomorrow – as part of the ongoing evolution of the Baker Tilly brand.

Aimed at strengthening and modernising how we represent our network to clients, our people, our profession and the communities in which we operate, all the core elements that comprise Baker Tilly’s visual identity – colour, fonts, imagery, and the applications in which they reside – have evolved.

Donald Sant, Managing Partner at Baker Tilly Malta, commented: “This is a very exciting time to be part of the Baker Tilly International network and we believe that this development of our brand and visual identity better matches our commitment to make a difference to our clients, our people, our communities, and our profession. From today, we are trading as Baker Tilly to signify our cohesive network and our ability to assist our clients around the globe”.

The new visual identity went ‘live’ on Monday 3 December, with more than 70 firms unveiling the new identity in their marketplace.

Speaking on the new identity, Ted Verkade, CEO of the network, said: “Beyond our expertise and proven capability to serve global clients, we want the Baker Tilly brand to be synonymous with our commitment to building great relationships and having great conversations to ensure great futures. This is what sets us apart. We make decisions now, to shape a successful tomorrow for our clients, our people, our profession and our communities. From today, Now, for tomorrow will serve as both our purpose and our tagline, becoming central to our brand and at the forefront of all of our communications.

“Growth is at the heart of our business. Our new symbol is inspired by organic growth patterns found in nature. It signifies our capacity to be agile and adaptable to the unique needs of our clients. The wordmark is in all lowercase letters to represent our personal and approachable nature. The removal of the space between Baker and Tilly signifies our cohesive network.”

The emphasis on a new brand identity reflects Baker Tilly International’s desire for a more unified representation across its global network. Ben Lloyd, Baker Tilly International’s Chief Operating Officer said “Our decision to make this change now is because over the last two decades the Baker Tilly network has continued to grow and evolve and this needs to be reflected in our branding. A consistent brand position makes it easier for people to appreciate who we are, what we do, and how we operate across markets”.

Firms eligible to trade as Baker Tilly will launch the new identity before 31 January 2019, by which time member firms in over 130 territories will trade as Baker Tilly.
