U.S. Trust, Bank of America Unveils Ad Campaign for Ultra High-Net-Worth Market

U.S. Trust, Bank of America Private Wealth Management rolled out a new advertising campaign aimed at the ultra high-net-worth market on Sunday, May 2. The “What is Worth?” ad campaign focuses on individuals and families seeking a private banking relationship to help them manage their tangible and intangible assets, the bank said in a statement.

Ads for the campaign, which will run through the end of 2010, will appear in print and online daily and weekly publications, including The New York Times Magazine, The New Yorker, The Atlantic, Barron’s, Worth Magazine, FT Wealth and Architectural Digest, and a focused search engine effort will reinforce the campaign.

For the launch, the campaign uses the “What is Worth?” construct to pose rhetorical questions about how individuals measure their worth. The statement said additional ads will be deployed later in the year with these questions developing the “worth” theme:

? What is “passing down some of your values as well as your assets” worth?
