Summary/Abstract: The theoretical and empirical lack of support for including brand trust in the model of brand equity and the brand-customer relationship paradigm require further investigation of the links between the two terms. For the purposes of the current research, six proposals for operationalisation of brand trust are discussed. A novel classification of its dimensions, namely: consistency, honesty, and concern, and a hypothetical model of brand equity including brand are proposed.
