The Shivalik Bank logo blends in the various aspects from nature with the company goals. The image icon in the picture represents earth (the small green moutain/triangle) and sky (the blue on top). It also cannotes reaching for the sky as there is an upward arrow. These aspects hold significance with the company ideals as Shivalik Bank aims for reaching the sky with its feet firmly placed in the ground.
The abstract view of mountains denotes stability, strength and growth. The mountain range that can be seen in the image (mountains behind mountains) reflects progressiveness of the brand. We are inter-related for all our services and our inclusive effort of the team has the strength like that of the mountains. This indicates the strength with which we serve our external and internal customers.
The blue part of the sky denotes the universe which further connotes our prospective clients. This tells a lot about our capabilities and aspirations. The smooth edge of the blue part in the icon shows our client communication skills that is humble, courteous, professional and approachable.
The green color is inspired from the earthy hues denoting grounded approach at Shivalik Bank. Despite a definite aim towards our constant growth, we don't put anything before our customers. The "client first" attitude at Shivalik Bank comes from our down to earth approach.
The negative space in between is deliberately left to show Shivalik Bank's facilitating growth.
