There are many companies that do brand identity development.

Here are some of the ones that I've collected in my favorites list:

Unboundary - www.unboundary.com
Crosby Associates - www.crosbyassociates.com
DeSola Group - www.desolagroup.com
Landor - www.landor.com
Eisenman - www.eisenman.com
INC Design - www.incdesign.com
Addison - www.addison.com
Liquid Agency - www.liquidagency.com

Are there any famous or well known brand identity companies, with a track record, that aren't listed here. If they specialize in finance branding all the better for this project. And even better still if they are in NY or Chicago.

Thanks!
