Positioning Ternary as the Fund Manager That Advances With Values

Rebranding a Purpose-Driven Fund Management Firm for Global Investors

Ternary is a Singapore-based fund management company that bridges international investors with growth opportunities across Asia through mindful investments in alternative assets. With a strong emphasis on purpose and principles, Ternary offers high-net-worth individuals, multi-family offices, and institutions access to private and public equity investments that generate not only financial returns but also positive social and environmental impact. By repositioning Ternary with a bold yet conscientious brand identity, the new brand system reflects its values-led approach, Hero brand personality, and commitment to building a better tomorrow, advancing capital with clarity, conscience, and confidence.

Repositioning a Fund Management Firm to Champion Purpose and Performance

THE CREATIVE CHALLENGE
Clarifying brand identity to attract values-driven investors in a competitive market
  • Ternary Fund needed to stand out in a crowded financial sector dominated by conventional profit-focused firms.

  • The previous branding lacked clarity and emotional resonance, leading to confusion among potential investors.

  • Its purpose-driven mission—mindful investments with positive societal impact—was not effectively communicated.

  • Without a strong identity, it struggled to connect with its ideal audience and convey credibility.

  • Industry data showed 75% of companies have rebranded since 2020, and consistent branding can boost performance by up to 20%, reinforcing the urgency to act.

BRAND TOUCHPOINTS

Ternary’s brand identity is thoughtfully applied across all touchpoints to ensure a unified and purposeful expression of its core philosophy, “Advancing With Values.” The logo’s upward-pointing stylised “A” communicates direction, growth, and aspiration, while the refined blue-grey colour palette conveys trust, professionalism, and clarity. Typography choices, Work Sans and Lato, enhance readability and modernity, reflecting Ternary’s balance of strategic foresight and approachability. Imagery focuses on real people and environments, capturing the brand’s human-centred approach and commitment to meaningful impact.

Across digital and print platforms, such as investment reports, social media, website, business cards, and email signatures, Ternary’s identity maintains visual and verbal consistency. Each element reinforces its position as a principled fund manager dedicated to guiding investors towards opportunities that are both financially sound and socially responsible. From curated investor presentations to a sleek, informative website, every touchpoint affirms Ternary’s role as a forward-thinking, values-led investment partner.
