Relaunched annual report.

Task

Swissquote wanted modern reporting expressing the courage to innovate and a distinctive look and feel to distinguish it from other financial services providers. An online-first strategy was used to create the ideal combination of digital and print, with a comprehensive online report and an integrated quick report giving consumers in a hurry key facts and figures in only 90 seconds – in striking Swissquote style.

Annual report online

“We have used SmartNotes for our annual report and were thus able to optimise the efficiency and transparency of the reporting process. The high degree of automation, the excellent functionality of the number management and the CD-compliant implementation with the layout robot convinced us. The decisive factor for us was that we could create the reports ready for printing completely in Word and Excel. The correction effort was massively reduced and the media break to a graphic programme such as InDesign was avoided.ˮ
