We need a logo design for a new financial advisory and fund management firm based in Switzerland. We currently have the name and website www.f2cpartners.com, but have recently renamed the firm VAI Capital.
We need a logo that is simple, legible and elegant, it must inspire confidence and professionalism / competence, it can be bold and should have pure lines. We have an existing colour scheme (HEX2A4C09;88B04B) which it would be good to stick to, but we are open to alternatives. We will need a square version and a rectangular version. Capital is the part of the name that is shared by many other firms in similar lines of business, so VAI is the part to focus on (to which most prominence should be given).
We focus on investments in low-carbon transport (e.g. electric vehicles) but we do not want the logo to be too explicit about the scope. VAI was chosen for its meaning in italian ("Go"!), something that for us is a rallying cry to take action towards positive impact (mobilising capital to this end), while also making a subtle reference to our focus on transport (movement).

Requirements
Must have
- One square version and one rectangual version (see examples of those for the old company name and logo attached for reference). The logos should be appropriate for a white background as a priority and should be transparent ("see-through" so that the colour of the background is visible "through" the logo / around the elements of the logo). Most likely background (primary colour) is white, but if the logo is placed on a coloured background this will most likely be on a shade of green.
Should not have
- Pictures of cars of vehicles - reference to the theme if any should be subtle / inferred
