Logo required for a business startup called SMSF Audit Exchange based and operating in the Australian financial services sector. The business aggregates the audit work of SMSF's controlled by accountants and financial planning firms to an online platform (the exchange) that SMSF audit specialist firms then bid for large tranches of business on a periodic basis. The exchange is likely to drive consolidation in the audit industry and reduce fees for the benefit of accountants, financial planners and fund trustees. The design needs to appeal to and be trusted by accountants and financial planners, SMSF auditors, accounting bodies and regulators such as ASIC and the ATO. Conservative colours and font preferred with a professional services firm finish.
Target Market(s)
Typically partners (owners) of small-medium accounting and financial planning firms, generally males aged 40-60 in Australia. Also needs to target large SMSF audit specialists who would be users of the platform. Overall audience is professional services and the business is trying to create a change in their resourcing and procurement strategy.

Requirements
Must have
- The logo needs to cover the business name, SMSF Audit Exchange. If this can be simplified without loosing its meaning happy to consider that. Want the word Exchange to be the main feature, with SMSF and Audit less prominent.
Nice to have
- Would be nice if the logo had the feel of a financial exchange like a stock exchange. Consider how the letter X is presented in the word Exchange. May like the use of white on a dark background.
Should not have
- Bright loud colours should not be used, needs to be professional, tasteful with a slick modern edge to it.
