When I interviewed for Vested- Integrated Communications, as a part of my Interview process I was tasked to find a creative way to target individuals from the ages of 18-32. I decided to focus on TikTok and how Vested could utilize it as a tool to connect with a younger audience, as well as their client base.

2. How Can Financial Institutions and
FinTechs Leverage Marketing &
Communications To Attract Today's
Younger Consumer?
4. "Three trends are shaping how Gen Z is pushing fintech to
evolve: a dislike for credit card debt; an expectation that brands
will reflect their personal values; and a desire for community,
networking, and self-education within financial services that
make investing a fun, recreational activity."
