On the eve of one of the most anticipated events on the tennis calendar, the Miami Open, Itaú Personnalité announces a masterstroke: the debut of a partnership with Carlos Alcaraz, the global tennis phenomenon. With this strategic move, the bank not only renews its commitment to the tournament for another five years but also allies itself with one of the most promising names in the sport, strengthening its connection with the high-income public.
Carlos Alcaraz for the “Always in Movement” Movement
Carlos Alcaraz, the young talent who reached the top of the world tennis rankings, is now the protagonist of Itaú Personnalité's latest campaign. Under the “Always in Movement” concept, started a year ago to redefine the segment’s positioning, the campaign celebrates the lasting partnership with the athlete.
“As my career advances, it is with great excitement that I announce my collaboration with Itaú, a bank committed to excellence. Itaú's continued support for tennis, including investments in tournaments and social initiatives in Brazil, is deeply inspiring. I look forward to working together and making a difference, starting with this week’s Miami Open.”

The bank and the athlete share values of strategy, attitude and focus, aiming to prepare for the future and exceed customer expectations.
Strategy and Innovation: The Recipe for Success
Eduardo Tracanella, CMO of Itaú Unibanco, highlights the importance of this new chapter for Itaú Personnalité, underlining the segment's commitment to innovation and service excellence. “The high-income segment is one of our strategic priorities. Knowing the demands of this audience, it is crucial that we are always ahead, evolving to meet their new demands and exceed their expectations.”
A Campaign that Promises
Produced by the agency GALERIA.ag, the campaign debuts with an impactful TV film, released during the Jornal Nacional break. The production highlights Alcaraz in action, while his voice highlights the harmony between his skills and the differentiators of Itaú Personnalité, reinforcing the message of preparation and the ideal support team to face any challenge.
Affinity and Lifestyle
Involvement with tennis goes beyond sponsorship, reflecting the lifestyle of Personnalité customers. “Tennis is a sport that resonates strongly with our audience. With our presence at the Miami Open and our partnership with Bia Haddad Maia last year, we seek to strengthen this connection. After all, tennis represents not only high performance but also a lifestyle”, adds Tracanella.
Future Connections
The choice of Alcaraz symbolizes not only the sport's brilliant present but also its promise for the future, aligning with Itaú Unibanco's positioning of being “Made of the Future”. The partnership seeks to go further, creating strong and lasting ties, reflecting a shared commitment to talent and rapprochement with the Latin American public, especially Brazil.
An Exclusive Miami Open Experience
The campaign also marks the renewal of Itaú's master sponsorship of the Miami Open for another five years, promising exclusive benefits to Itaú Personnalité customers, such as special seats, discounts and unique experiences during the event.
In short, the partnership between Itaú Personnalité and Carlos Alcaraz is not just a collaboration between a bank and an athlete, but rather a strategic move that promises to redefine the
future of tennis and the high-income banking experience.
