Abstract

This article investigates the trade-off of developing a brand facing a firm. Establishing the brand on the one hand reduces liquidity (subjective) risk perceived by investors through effective marketing, but on the other hand increases market (objective) risk through incurring a substantial advertising expenditure to accumulate intangible assets. I estimate the model parameters using a new liquidity-augmented Capital Asset Pricing Model developed by Liu ( 2006 ). I find that as advertising expenditure increases, the brand lowers liquidity risk associated with perceived risk by consumers and investors, but increases market risk associated with asset-market structure. Although the impact through which the role of brands operated differed somewhat across industry characteristics, I find that the general impact of brand contribution is empirically plausible across the firm products.
