Abstract
The article presents the results of an empirical study of the features of evaluating advertising of banking products. 99 respondents with a different experience of borrowing behaviour, aged 18 to 66, 37 per cent males, were assessed. The respondents were asked to rate, using the semantic differential methodology, two pictures depicting mortgage advertisements from VTB and Otkritie banks. By comparing the average values of the ratings, we found that advertising for banking products is evaluated more negatively, even if the ideal option is presented. Actual advertising images are rated significantly lower than ideal images — people with real experience of taking loans rate advertising for banking products as more benevolent.
