A major challenge with the Reliance Smart Money website was its scattered navigation and deep menu hierarchies, which made it hard for users to quickly find the information they needed. The redesigned sitemap addresses this by organizing content into clear top-level categories: Products & Investments, Trading & Platforms, Insights & Resources, Customer Support, and Legal & Compliance - making navigation much more straightforward.

Our design approach was straightforward: make finance feel welcoming and trustworthy.
