A sustainable Interactive Annual Report for a socially responsible bank

INNOVATION never stands still. Stop printing your annual report, choose DIGITAL and be the CHANGE you want to see in the world.

We’ve heard so much about environmental precautions and seen so many advertisements to sensitise and educate people to be more environmentally friendly today, that it sticks to our mind. A few years ago, it seemed like we had access to endless resources. The world was overflowing with untapped resources and we assumed that things like gas, oil and coal were endless; but now with all that is going on around us, we're starting to see the flip side of the coin.

Today’s environmental challenges greatly affect our economy, politics and society. It is more of a moral and corporate sustainability initiative for businesses to protect the environment from the degradation of the ecosystem. This has led to the rise of green businesses and green marketing, in different sectors of activity.

Digital transformation and eco-friendly actions


The lines between the traditional and digital marketing world are blurring. The way our customers and other businesses consume marketing tools has changed and is now different. Digital technologies are transforming our local market, to a greener one. Businesses are experiencing digital transformation in one form or another while affecting positively their business model: creating new paradigms of doing business, reinforcing relationships with their stakeholders (clients and shareholders) and providing solutions to address sustainable challenges.

As a responsible SME agency, offering ethical digital solutions to our clients has now become part of our objectives. Developing and embracing sustainable digital solutions became a core feature of our business. Where comes, the Interactive Annual Report. The Interactive Annual Report is a great way to present a company’s annual report in a more compelling and interesting way through engaging audiences and turning what is traditionally a boring piece of regulatory collateral into an incredible piece of storytelling through a web application.

Various businesses have made the leap to Interactive Annual Report for its various benefits. Apart from its interactive and engaging experiences, an online annual report results in the construction of a positive brand image as well as it helps to gain positive operational returns from customers, shareholders and public in general. We can see as well that companies around the world are using it as a tool to spread the word about their philosophy, vision and services, and be used as a place to show off a little.

Fully trusted by the client, we have been allocated three Interactive Annual Reports: Sustainability Report 2019, MCB Ltd Annual Report 2019 and MCB Group Annual Report 2019, to tell their story, create smarter interactive experience and enhance their data visualisation. Yet, thanks to the expertise of our professional and dedicated team, we have been able to help the client in the transition of sustainable innovation, by shifting from the traditional annual report presented in a PDF format, to the interactive one, presented under the form of a microsite. We have established a graphic concept in accordance with a theme that was already conceptualised for the printed annual report. With our creative touch and carefully planned and precise layout, the MCB Interactive Annual Report 2019 succeeds in providing strong, colourful, dynamic and comprehensive information to its audience. In addition, to facilitate the readers’ experience and improve the user-friendliness, we have used appealing designs, conspicuous graphics, interactive charts and colourful infographics that seamlessly blend together to impress their stakeholders. Providing a good balance between visuals and content has given an aesthetically pleasing appeal to the report.
