Featured article

Featured article (default )

The “default” appearance is best suited to highlight an important, timely article or insight from our strategists and portfolio managers. It comes with a built-in “marketing / ad” tile that should be used to drive the user to the latest podcast, announcement, or related topic.

Keep in mind that this component is a manually updated component, so you should always maintain up-to-date content, and refreshed regularly with the latest thought-pieces.

We recommend using this primarily on insight hub pages, and should always be paired with our Dynamic article component.

• Both the “featured” article and the “marketing” tile are one component. You can not remove the tile, or alter its color
• All main appearances have the ability to remove component-level top padding on or off
  • See example here
  • Note: Use this is to solve “double” padding issues when stacking similar colored components together which may cause large gaps to appear, and get pre-approval for guidance from the Design Platform team
