is growing at a high rate across major industries
such as retail trade, accommodation and food as
well as administration and support services.
Presently, Australia boasts an estimated 1,180
homegrown business format systems with over
73,000 franchisees. Some franchise models
comprise a blend of innovative structures that
inevitably create contractual and relational
complexities. One of the complexity is
franchise-operated business goodwill why does it
arise, and why it needs to be identified.
3To solve this problem, Dr. Antoine Maurice
Roussety has undertaken extensive research along
with other experts highlighting the problems of
goodwill in franchisee-operated businesses, in
context of the Australian contractual and
regulatory framework. Dr Roussetys research
paper contributes to new knowledge and stimulates
interest in the development of economic models
for the valuation of goodwill of
franchisee-operated businesses.
4These models serve as valuable tools in matters
such as due diligence of franchisee-operated
businesses engaged in mergers and acquisitions,
valuation of inheritance and wills, valuation of
business assets in matrimonial disputes,
value-creation based executive compensation
schemes, identification of value drivers in
growing businesses and, strategic decision making
as to whether to grow, merge, or divest.
