The Midas Awards World’s Best Financial Advertising released the first-ever Midas Brand Report, a new yearly ranking of the most successful advertisers according to their achievements in the Midas Awards.

“Gutsy, effective, and creative financial service campaigns deserve a ton of credit, and so do the brands that greenlight them,” said Alisun Armstrong, executive director of Midas Awards. “They deserve to be recognized and awarded for their important creative contribution. The Midas Brand Report will celebrate the innovative advertisers that adapt and continue to elevate this evolving industry.”

Congratulations to the outstanding advertisers who earned a spot on the first-ever Midas Brand Report, and to the agencies whose campaigns were worth their weight in gold:
