Establish a clear, defensible brand direction aligned with LaFinteca’s growth strategy.
Ensure visual consistency across all brands, sub-brands, and languages.
Reduce fragmentation through scalable design systems and standards.
Support video-first and campaign-led initiatives with strong visual systems.
