Insurer told to withdraw advert that promoted discrimination
The ARB found that the ad’s analogy between greeting a taxi driver in the ‘wrong’ language and driving without insurance relied on a harmful stereotype.

The ARB found that the ad’s analogy between greeting a taxi driver in the ‘wrong’ language and driving without insurance relied on a harmful stereotype.

The ‘tsotsi’ billboard did not cross the line into discriminatory or offensive content, says the Advertising Appeal Committee.

Nedbank’s TV commercial – featuring the tagline ‘Time is more valuable than money. Spend it wisely’ – appropriated Allan Gray’s proprietary advertising goodwill.

A client complained that she couldn’t earn Greenbacks rewards at a BP filling station because it does not accept American Express cards.

Allan Gray argued that Nedbank’s ‘Time is more valuable than money’ campaign infringed upon its intellectual property.
