The Burgerliche Ersparniskasse Bern, the oldest bank on the square and in the canton of Berne, is still the savings and mortgage bank for the people of Berne. To honour the founders of 1820, Burgerliche Ersparniskasse Bern regularly engages with the guilds as part of various projects. For example, the 700th anniversary of the Zunftgesellschaft zum Affen was taken as an opportunity to invite Bernese artists to explore the theme of the monkey and Bern in their works.
Studio Thom Pfister was commissioned by Burgerliche Ersparniskasse Bern to design and realise the digital annual report. The centrepiece of the concept is an art project with an exhibition entitled 'The Monkeys of Bern' and a high-quality art magazine. The exhibition was a great success and took place in the Kornhausforum Bern.
