ABV is a modular approach that integrates common marketing research metrics into financial calculations and meets standards for tax and financial reporting purposes. (Sattler, H., S. HÖgl, and O. Hupp. ‘Evaluation of the Financial Value of Brands.’ In ESOMAR, Excellence in International Research 2003, D. S. Fellows, ed. Amsterdam: ESOMAR, 2002.) This tool can be used for strategic decision-making purposes, such as assessing international expansion opportunities or prioritizing the purchase and/or sale of brands.
