  • A Taxonomy of Brand Valuation Methodologies: How Different Types of Methodologies Can Help to Answer Different Types of Questions
    A Taxonomy of Brand Valuation Methodologies: How different types of methodologies can help to answer different types of questions Gabriela Salinas, Global Brand Manager, Deloitte and Tim Ambler, Senior Fellow, London Business School Abstract Brands can be valued using a variety of techniques. Like any tool, each technique may be suitable for some purposes and not for others. This paper classifies the methodologies according to the approach and premises they adopt and suitability for different types of applications. We also indicate flaws in methodologies either in general or for particular purposes. Classification is complicated by specialist firms seeking to differentiate methodologies (“proprietary models”) for their own marketing purposes. Much of this differentiation is little more than re-labeling. The 24 methods of brand valuation, and 52 specialist providers, garnered from the literature represent possibly hundreds of commercial and academic approaches by the multitude of providers around the world. After removing those that do not appear to be used in practice we were left with 18 practical methods which we analyze and classify. This taxonomy is intended as a guide to current and potential users of brand valuation through the jungle that the proliferation of proprietary brand valuation techniques has created. May 14, 2008 Contact: [email protected], [email protected] © 2008 Gabriela Salinas and Tim Ambler A Taxonomy of Brand Valuation Methodologies: How different types of methodologies can help to answer different types of questions Since the 1980s, marketers have been under increasing pressure for “accountability” in two senses: being responsible for the results from marketing activity and reporting those results using the language of finance.

    sustainability Article Corporate Responsibility for Human Rights in Assam Tea Plantations: A Business and Human Rights Approach Madhura Rao 1 and Nadia Bernaz 2,* 1 Food Claims Centre Venlo, Maastricht University, 5911 BV Venlo, The Netherlands; [email protected] 2 Law Group, Wageningen University, 6708 PB Wageningen, The Netherlands * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 16 July 2020; Accepted: 7 September 2020; Published: 9 September 2020 Abstract: This paper explores how UK-based companies deal with their responsibility to respect the human rights of Assam (India) tea plantation workers. Through qualitative content analysis of publicly available corporate reports and other documents, it investigates how companies approach and communicate their potential human rights impacts. It highlights the gap between well-documented human rights issues on the ground and corporate reports on these issues. It aims to answer the following research question: in a context where the existence of human rights violations at the end of the supply chain is well-documented, how do companies reconcile their possible connection with those violations and the corporate responsibility to respect human rights under the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights? This paper reveals the weakness of the current corporate social responsibility (CSR) approach from the perspective of rights-holders. It supports a business and human rights approach, one that places the protection of human rights at its core. Keywords: tea plantations; Assam; business and human rights; corporate social responsibility; UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights; UK Modern Slavery Act 1. Introduction This paper explores how UK-based tea companies deal with their responsibility to respect the human rights of Assam tea plantation workers.

  • Brand Valuation a Case Study on Lindt & Sprüngli
    MAJEURE FINANCE Brand Valuation A case study on Lindt & Sprüngli Daniel Llobet & Alejo López-Balcells, supervised by Professor Patrick Legland June 2019 2 ABSTRACT Typically absent from financial statements, the brand of a company remains most times in the dark of finance. After all, it is the unconscious rationale behind consumers´ or employees´ choices for a product or a company, and how would you capitalize that? Some would say it is even esoteric. Nevertheless, its importance cannot be undermined. Brands are the most important individual asset of many companies and, as such, to know its value can be key for the company´s decision making. Built through years of investments in recognition, the brand is associated with certain product characteristics such as quality or price, but also eco- friendliness or fair trade. Perception, therefore, is key to understand its value. We have tried in this research paper to gather the predominant valuation methods in the industry, using them to value Lindt as brand. The broad range of results yielded by the different methods must not come as a surprise; as mentioned, the value is dependent on the evaluator´s perception of the brand. While some of the methods provide different solutions to try to objectivize this perception, this remains a subjective task after all. As a result, the main objective of this paper is to evaluate the relevance of each method, providing recommendations on the conditions to use one or the other. 3 TABLE OF CONTENT 1.
