This study aims to outline the impact of rebranding on a financial institution in Romania, CEC Bank, the oldest Romanian bank operating on the Romanian market since 1864. Following the 2007 rebranding, the purpose of the bank was to create a competitive commercial bank image. For this bank the rebranding process proved to be successful.
