the logo of the Dutch Police was made by Studio Dumbar..
they also have an office in germany, but honestly i don't think they did that bank logo (which is rather dull).

well yeah it's a lot more dull. and this is not really an omg wtf rip thread. it's just that it reminds me a lot of the dutch police. but then here in germany. like they're following me, it's a conspiracy kind of thing! that kind of argh. you know. (didn't know dumbar made the KLPD logo, good to know though).

that bank logo looks like a smelly pile of poo.

There's a Bank in Portugal who has the same trademark, and they were already using it before the Dutch Police logo was introduced. So we could think this is a RIP too.
But I'm not that worried in this case, as Dumbar did a good thing in the execution and branding. The Bank from Germany is really a poor looking graphical element.
