According to the consultancy, Itaú “manages to perform well because it differentiates itself from the competition by constantly updating the services offered”, in addition to acting differently in the way it communicates, “using a more informal language and closer to the public”.
To arrive at the result, the study makes a rigorous financial analysis of each company throughout the year, in addition to evaluating the consumer’s point of view. In this edition, 478 brands were evaluated in 36 product and service categories.
