Marketing Campaign Market: Die Bayerische hijacks Scalable Capital's XXL billboard in Munich
In response to the reform of private pension provision, neobroker Scalable Capital is aggressively marketing its depot offerings. Insurer Die Bayerische has countered with a guerrilla marketing campaign, selecting Munich's Stachus (Karlsplatz) as the location for its first counter-attack. There, Die Bayerische has taken over Scalable's XXL billboard, sending 'Ganz liebe Grüße' (kind regards) to the competitor. This move highlights the intensifying competition in the private pension market following regulatory reforms.
Interesting guerrilla marketing tactic in the insurance/fintech sector, showing competitive dynamics but not a major AdTech/industry shift.
