Most of us associate the colour red with "stop" or caution, but what if it could mean something completely different?
This is the idea behind CIMB's 'Moving You Forward' campaign, which gives its signature colour a fresh meaning.
Instead of representing mistakes, warnings or moments of hesitation, red becomes a symbol of energy, courage and the momentum to take the next step.

The film challenges us to look at red in a different way by giving the colour a whole new meaning
Throughout the video, we can see several individuals who, while going about their daily routines, get knocked down by unfortunate life circumstances.
A street hawker sees red when she's served an eviction notice; a man feels worried as he sees his stocks and investments in the red, and a food delivery rider notices a red flashing indicator as something goes wrong with his bike.
But eventually, the audience is given an idea: What if red didn't mean "stop", but the opportunity to go ahead and make something better for yourself?
The film then shows how CIMB is present and ready to turn the situation around at a moment's notice.
From providing business capital to saving up for the future, the bank positions its various financial solutions as ways to keep moving forward even during the most challenging circumstances.
So, whatever it looks like, every step forward begins with the decision to take it.
At the heart of it all, CIMB is here to empower your next step, no matter the circumstances
For one person, moving forward might mean starting a business. For someone else, it could mean chasing a long-held dream, acting on an opportunity or finding the strength to persevere.
There is no single definition of progress because everyone's goals and journeys are different.
More than a bank, CIMB positions itself as a partner that supports your intentions into action by providing the support and opportunities you need to keep moving forward.
