DTCC Connection

The Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation’s (DTCC) 2015 Annual Report, “One DTCC: Leveraging Our Global Assets,” has earned a Silver award for “Best Annual Report” from the Financial Communications Society (FCS) and a Gold award from Graphic Design USA (GDUSA).

The digital Annual Report recapped the year’s accomplishments and its theme reflected the increased value that DTCC delivers to clients and the industry by operating as a unified global organization that leverages its assets across the post-trade lifecycle.

Marie Chinnici-Everitt, Managing Director and Chief Marketing Officer, commented on the recognition.

“The Annual Report is one of our most important communications initiatives because it enables us to educate stakeholders on the company’s financial position as well as how the firm is broadening its support for clients,” Marie said. “We also use the Annual Report to share our insights on important industry issues and to highlight the innovative work we’re doing to further reduce risk and costs for the industry. It’s an honor to have this work recognized by the FCS and DGUSA.”

This marks the fourth consecutive year that DTCC has been honored by the FCS, totaling two Gold awards and two Silver awards. Founded in 1967, the FCS is the leading organization representing the financial services marketing community. The Portfolio Awards competition recognizes creative excellence in marketing communications work from financial companies.

This year’s FCS competition included more than 400 entries from financial services firms across the country. The panel of judges consisted of senior-level executives from JP Morgan, Prudential, Bank of America and T. Rowe Price and Oppenheimer Funds, among others.

GDUSA’s American Web Design competition is held on an annual basis, showcasing the power of design and effective communication. The innovative design of the Annual Report was recognized alongside the creative works of top-performing design firms. For more than 50 years, GDUSA has been a business to business information source for graphic design professionals.
