The bank is believed to want to reduce the size of its roster. It currently works with a number of agencies across its direct marketing activity, including Balloon Dog, EHS 4D, Soho Square, Teamspirit and VCCP me.

The review is being handled separately to the global digital creative review, which began last week and is also being run by the bank’s procurement department.

BBH and Maxus, which handle advertising and media respectively, are unaffected.
