Apple and Google are the world’s most valuable brands for the fourth year running.

Interbrand’s 2016 ‘Best Global Brands’ report reveals that Apple, Google and Coca-Cola took home top placements.

Apple’s value grew by 5% since 2015, to US$178 billion, while Google’s grew 11% to US$133 billion. Though Coca-Cola’s value had dropped by 7%, it’s value remains at the US$73 billion mark.

It’s the fourth year in a row Apple and Google have claimed the top positions.

Tesla and Dior were new appearances in the top 100, with Dior ranked 89th at US$4.9 billion and Tesla at 100th, with a brand value of US$4 billion.

Facebook experienced a 48% increase in value, the largest growth in the list, to $US32.6 billion.

Other growing brands are Amazon (33%), Lego (25%), Nissan (22%) and Adobe (21%).

“It’s clear the best global brands are not just weathering change, but driving it,” says Jez Frampton, Interbrand’s global CEO.

“They understand their anatomy of growth is complex, unique and personal; they look inward and outward, expand into new markets, and create better experiences to grow their brands and businesses.”

Ranking for the report – now in its 17th year – is based on three key components that contribute to a brand’s cumulative value: the financial performance of branded product and service, the role the brand plays in influencing consumer choice, and the strength a brand has to command a premium price or secure earnings for the company.
