ADWEEK: For many, wealth is often connected to a certain gender and race. To shift that narrative, investment banking services BNY Mellon Wealth Management is telling a different story.

To challenge stereotypes around wealth, BNY Mellon partnered with creative agency Havas New York on a campaign called “Do Well Better.” The effort highlights notable philanthropic and diverse clients of BNY Mellon and shows their purpose-driven ventures and how they leverage wealth to create a positive impact on society.
