Our contribution

Expertise organised
for the reader’s next question.

The two completed editions gave each firm a defined way to present its expertise. Insurance guidance was separated into explanations, comparisons and reader questions; the advisory issue distinguished sector analysis, market developments and regulatory updates. The editorial structure made the purpose of each item clear before the reader entered the detail.

01 / Concept

Give the publication
a structure.

Each publication gained an identifiable editorial structure, with sections that could accommodate different subjects without losing the sequence or purpose of the issue.

02 / Content

Give each subject
a useful form.

A technical explanation, a regulatory update and a practical question were written as different forms of content. The reader was given context for interpreting each. The articles had distinct purposes within the issue.

03 / Design

Make the hierarchy
visible.

The finished pages carried those distinctions through headings, navigation and layout. Across 28 pages, each firm had a coherent publication ready to place its specialist knowledge in front of readers.
