Writing for PWM & FRIM

Writing for
PWM & FRim

While copy for the wealth and investment management side of the First Republic brand should adhere to our general brand guidelines, there are some departures that should be noted.

How is writing for
PWM and FRIM
different?

First, our Private Wealth Management (PWM) and First Republic Investment Management (FRIM) target audiences are a bit more savvy about financial matters, and our communications should reflect that sophistication.

Second, wealth and investment products, unlike financial deposits, are not insured by the FDIC, which is chiefly why PWM/FRIM copy triggers an entirely separate set of disclosures.

To reflect this, when PWM/FRIM copy is displayed next to general banking copy, it must be treated differently visually, either set off in its own box or on a shaded background.

And finally, promissory language, while always something to avoid when writing for our brand, should be of particular concern here.
