The Brand Finance Global 500 is an annual study conducted by leading brand valuation consultancy Brand Finance. The world’s biggest brands are put to the test and evaluated to determine which are the most powerful and most valuable.
Ferrari is the world’s most powerful brand. The legendary Italian carmaker scores highly on a wide variety of measures on Brand Finance’s Brand Strength Index, from desirability, loyalty and consumer sentiment to visual identity, online presence and employee satisfaction. Ferrari is one of only eleven brands (including Google, Hermès, Coca-Cola, Disney, Rolex and F1 racing rivals Red Bull) to be awarded an AAA+ brand rating and has the highest overall score.
Brand Finance Chief Executive David Haigh stated: “The prancing horse on a yellow badge is instantly recognizable the world over, even where paved roads have yet to reach. In its home country and among its many admirers worldwide Ferrari inspires more than just brand loyalty, more of a cultish, even quasi-religious devotion, its brand power is indisputable.” – he explained.
Ferrari, which scored 94.1 out of 100 in the Brand Strength Index (BSI), is the only automotive brand to achieve the highest AAA+ rating, according to the 2020 Brand Finance Global 500 report. Ferrari beat Disney, in second place with a score of 93.9 out of a 100, and Coca Cola, in sixth place with a score of 90.9. The report calculates the value of the Ferrari brand at $9.1 billion, with year-on-year growth of 9 per cent, boosted by positive sales and overall brand strength.
