“If this business were to be split up, I would be glad to take the brands, trademarks, and goodwill and you could have all the bricks and mortar – and I would fare better than you”
John Stuart, Former Chairman of Quaker Oats Ltd
One can hardly deny the importance of brands for the modern companies. Brands represent very important strategic assets of many companies; they can constitute a major part of what the business as a whole is worth. As an intangible asset, the brand is not just a name or a symbol associated with a company, it also carries brand loyalty, name awareness, perceived quality, and brand associations.
In the situation of intense competition between companies, the value that a brand provides becomes a source of a competitive advantage. On the one hand, brands provide value to customers by increasing confidence in the purchase decision, by building a more attractive image of the company and products it offers, by improving satisfaction when the product is purchased and used. Take a look at a Chanel bag, for example. What would it be worth without the Chanel logo on it? Intuitively, one can build up his or her own perception of the value of a brand, for example, by watching advertisement about the brand, or by learning about the way product from this brand is produced. Brand value is important for both companies and their customers. On the other hand, brands provide value for a company by an overall improved efficiency of marketing programs, strengthened brand loyalty, and a possibility to charge price premium. What is also important, brands act as a tool to distinguish a company from competitors and build an attractive image for clients. What is more, a very important action in brand management is the non-financial brand evaluation and the brand valuation that can be fulfilled by application of different models to identify the economic brand value. Identification of economic value of a brand is currently becoming more and more important, as a percentage of intangibles in the financial structure of companies has been continually growing and more and more assets recognized as productive resources do not appear in the balance sheet. Plus, investments in intangible assets have been expanding and managers need a reliable tool to measure their economic value.
However, many companies often find themselves lost between the methods of brand valuation as different methods end up with different values. Firstly, companies encounter challenges with the identification of relevant brand attributes, secondly, they do not know which brand valuation method would be the most reliable and would provide a fair value of the brand in question. The challenge is especially remarkable for the international jewellery business. International jewellery companies generally rely on the strength of their brand to build up an attractive aura of the prestige for their products and set high price margins. They perceive brand valuation as a highly relevant activity, as it provides a fair value of their brand, and this value is further used to adjust strategies, make decisions about marketing efforts, etc. They need to carefully choose a suitable brand valuation method, taking into consideration specific limitations associated with the industry.
Dynamics of the industry, changes in consumer behaviour and the industry itself, growing trends in internalisation and reconfiguration of channels influence jewellery business and cause challenges for brand valuation. The growing tendency of future industry consolidation due to mergers and acquisitions highlights the need to develop a knowledge that shapes brand valuation in the international jewellery business.
Therefore, the objective of this paper is to analyse existing brand valuation methods and problematics of brand valuation, study specifics of brand valuation for jewellery business and, most importantly, identify brand valuation methods that meet the specifics of international jewellery companies and provide a fair brand value. Cases of Tiffany & Co, Chow Tai Fook and Pandora jewellery companies were selected to execute brand valuation using several methods. The paper suggests methods that could provide potentially more reliable results of the brand valuation for the international jewellery companies and develops a guidance for managers as well as for scholar working in this particular academic field.

Q1. What are the problems of brand valuation in international jewellery business?
