Credit: World Trade Center | Port Authority of New York & New Jersey The television portion of the marketing initiative delivers a unique implementation of the traditional television commercial, featuring custom sponsored segments that appear as simulated newscasts with images rotated 180 degrees. They feature conversations with Jodi Love, lead portfolio manager of four active equity T. Rowe Price ETFs, and Rob Larkins, portfolio manager of the T. Rowe Price QM U.S. Bond ETF, in a mock studio set that has been flipped as a metaphor to represent volatility.

Along with the television spot, the multi-platform marketing program consists of several components geared toward financial advisors, wealth managers, registered investment advisors (RIAs), and individual investors. It will run through the end of the year. Full components include: Out-of-Home: Upside-down newsstand installation at Manhattan's Oculus, targeting thousands of New York City financial professionals during their daily commute on September 16 and 17, as well as billboards Print Activation: "Bloomberg BusinessWeek" monthly issue with a sponsored cover wrap uniquely printed upside down and a four-page vertical gatefold advertorial.
