Saatchi Wants Name Back

Saatchi Wants Name Back

Weekend newspaper reports state that Maurice Saatchi has asked Cordiant, the advertising agency formerly known as Saatchi & Saatchi, to have back use of the Saatchi name.

Sir Tim Bell, spokesman for Maurice Saatchi, said: “We would like the name back because it is ours.” However, Jennifer Laing, the chairman of Saatchi and Saatchi Advertising which is Cordiant’s UK division said: “We have received a number of informal approaches but the conversations do not develop very much. The name is not for sale and that is it.”

Neither side would put a value on the Saatchi name.
