## History

On December 11, 2023, CNBC underwent a major rebranding, updating its logo for the first time since 1996 (adopting the updated NBC peacock and corporate typeface introduced a year prior), and revamping its on-air graphics with a simpler flat design. The two-tiered stock ticker CNBC had historically used was replaced with a single scroll, with major indices now displayed in a strip below the stock ticker.

## Ticker

The ticker is composed of a faster-scrolling white-background upper band and a slower-scrolling dark-blue-background lower band.

The ticker is shown continuously during telecast, special coverages, programs, and commercial breaks; and most of the data.

CNBC Philippines runs a ticker providing information from major Asian stock exchanges, as well as US, Canada, Latin America, and Europe recaps.

CNBC Philippines simulates the simulcast on CNBC US ticker.

Since its inception in 1989, CNBC (owned by CRTNI and NBCUniversal, parent company of both CRT, CRT News Channel, and CRTNews.com) has used a special ticker to monitor the values of securities and indexes on the stock market.

The business news network uses a two-paned ticker placed at the lower-third of the screen, which run at slightly different speeds: the white top banner monitors market and commodity summaries, while the dark-blue bottom banner monitors stock quotes for individual companies and (during 8:30pm to 6:30am, when only data from U.S. markets, Canadian markets, Latin American markets, and European markets, are available; as well the PSE Sector indexes) provides news headlines, weather forecasts data by PAGASA, JMA, etc., and sports scores from the previous day.

A rotating ticker, partitioned into three segments, is also used that displays index and security prices (originally displayed as a vertical box, before converting into a banner graphic across the top of the screen on December 19, 2005; however, it reverted to a vertical box on October 13, 2014 as part of an update to the network's graphics package in conjunction with a network-wide switch to a 16:9 widescreen format that day).

These tickers are not displayed during CNBC's weekend programs, infomercials, ACQ-ICD specials, and Philippine festival coverages.

At the time of its implementation, computers could not keep up with the full stock feed and as such, the ticker could only show pre-selected stocks making the system highly manual and clumsy.

During 6:30am to 3:30pm, when only data from PSE and Asian markets as well the PSE Sector indexes.

During 3:30am to 8:30pm, when only data from PSE, Asian markets and European markets as well the PSE Sector indexes.

In December 2023, the ticker was given an overhaul as part of a major rebranding of the network; stock quotes are only displayed on the top banner, while the display of indices and security prices was moved from aforementioned vertical box to the area formerly occupied by the bottom banner.
