Background of the Study

Corporate rebranding refers to the process through which a company changes its corporate image, identity, or positioning in the market. Rebranding can involve changes to a company’s logo, marketing strategy, product offerings, or overall mission. It is often undertaken to revitalize a company, enter new markets, or respond to shifts in consumer preferences or market conditions. Successful rebranding can improve consumer perception, enhance brand loyalty, and drive sales growth.

United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc, one of Nigeria’s leading financial institutions, underwent a significant rebranding exercise in recent years to modernize its image and strengthen its position in the competitive banking sector. UBA’s rebranding efforts have included updates to its visual identity, a focus on digital banking solutions, and repositioning itself as a customer-centric bank. In Benue State, where UBA operates extensively, the success of these rebranding efforts depends largely on how consumers perceive the changes and how these perceptions influence their banking choices.

This study aims to evaluate the effects of UBA’s corporate rebranding on consumer behavior in Benue State. The research will explore whether the bank’s new image and strategies have influenced customer loyalty, satisfaction, and overall brand perception.

Statement of the Problem

Rebranding is a complex process, and its success is not always guaranteed. For UBA, while the rebranding may have been intended to attract new customers and increase brand equity, it is important to understand how these changes have affected consumer behavior in Benue State. Given the diversity of consumer preferences in the banking sector, it remains unclear whether UBA’s rebranding efforts have led to positive shifts in customer loyalty, satisfaction, or engagement in the region.

The study seeks to assess the effectiveness of UBA’s rebranding strategy in Benue State, particularly focusing on how the rebranding has impacted consumer attitudes and behavior. By examining the relationship between rebranding efforts and consumer behavior, the study will provide insights into the effectiveness of corporate rebranding in the Nigerian banking industry.

Objectives of the Study

  1. To evaluate the impact of UBA’s corporate rebranding on consumer behavior in Benue State.

  2. To assess how UBA’s rebranding has affected customer satisfaction and loyalty in Benue State.

  3. To identify the factors that contribute to the success or failure of UBA’s rebranding efforts in the context of consumer behavior.

Research Questions

  1. How has UBA’s corporate rebranding affected consumer behavior in Benue State?

  2. What is the relationship between UBA’s rebranding and customer satisfaction and loyalty in Benue State?

  3. What factors influence the success of UBA’s rebranding efforts in shaping consumer behavior in Benue State?

Research Hypotheses

  1. UBA’s corporate rebranding significantly influences consumer behavior in Benue State.

  2. There is a positive relationship between UBA’s rebranding and customer satisfaction and loyalty in Benue State.

  3. The success of UBA’s rebranding is influenced by factors such as brand visibility, alignment with consumer needs, and the effectiveness of marketing communication.

Scope and Limitations of the Study

This study will focus on UBA’s rebranding efforts in Benue State, particularly examining their impact on consumer behavior, loyalty, and satisfaction. The study will rely on customer feedback and marketing data to evaluate the effectiveness of the rebranding strategy.

Limitations of the study may include challenges in obtaining a representative sample of UBA’s customer base in Benue State and potential biases in consumer responses. Additionally, other external factors such as economic conditions and competition may influence consumer behavior and complicate the analysis of rebranding effects.
