ISO 10668:2010 Brand Valuation
ISO 10668:2010 specifies requirements for procedures and methods of monetary brand value measurement.
ISO 10668:2010 specifies a framework for brand valuation, including objectives, bases of valuation, approaches to valuation, methods of valuation and sourcing of quality data and assumptions. It also specifies methods for reporting the results of such valuation.
ISO 10668 is a specification by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) for the procedures and methods of measuring the value of a brand.
In 2007 ISO set up a task force to draft an International Standard on monetary brand valuation. After 3 years the ISO 10668[1] – Monetary Brand Valuation – was released in Autumn 2010. This sets out the principles which should be adopted when valuing any brand.
ISO 10668 applies to brand valuations commissioned for all purposes, including:
Accounting and financial reporting
Insolvency and liquidation
Tax planning and compliance
Litigation support and dispute resolution
Corporate finance and fundraising
Licensing and joint venture negotiation
Internal management information and reporting
Strategic planning and brand management
The last of these applications include:
Brand and marketing budget determination
Brand portfolio review
Brand architecture analysis
Brand extension planning
Under ISO 10668 the brand valuer must declare the purpose of the valuation as this affects the premise or basis of value, the valuation assumptions used and the ultimate valuation opinion, all of which need to be transparent to a user of the final brand valuation report.
