Young & Rubicam has pulled out of the creative review on the $20 million SingTel account. The decision ends a 19-year relationship between the agency and the telecoms company.
Its decision leaves BatesAsia, Leo Burnett, Saatchi & Saatchi and Ogilvy & Mather to contest the business.
As the incumbent agency, Y&R had been guaranteed a place in the next round of the review.
