Bank Pekao is evaluating a major rebranding effort that may include a name change and the removal of the bison from its logo. President Cezary Stypułkowski has filed trademark applications for ‘Polbank’ and ‘Polbank24’ to cover various financial and mobile services. 

The move is intended to address market confusion, as research indicates customers frequently mistake the institution for PKO. While the bank is currently analyzing its market position and the impact of its brand assets, any potential rebranding is not expected to take place within the next year.
