Amazon and Apple are the most valuable brands in the world. However, Chinese brands continue to advance in this regard, according to a recent ranking linked to the brand. According to Kantar BrandZ's ranking, Chinese brands have overtaken Europe's top brands in terms of value.

Founded in 19th by Jeff Bezos, Amazon is becoming the most valuable brand in the world. Amazon's brand value is estimated at 3 billion. Apple, which was founded in 19th, has a brand value of 215 billion.

Google ranks third on this list with a value of 3 billion. Three Indian companies have also been included in the list of 100 companies. TCS is ranked 4th, HDFC Bank is ranked 4th and LIC is ranked 4th.

The list includes Microsoft at number four, China's video game and social media company Tencent at number five, Facebook at number six, Alibaba at number seven, Visa at number eight, McDonald's at number nine and MasterCard at number ten.

Graham Stoplehurst, director (global strategy) at Cantar BrandsZ, said the Chinese brand is moving slowly but steadily. According to the list, Tesla, formed in 2007, is the fastest growing and most valuable car brand.

The list is dominated by American brands. 9 out of 100 brands are American. France's Louis Vuitton ranks 31st and Europe's most valuable brand. Britain's Vodafone ranks 7th on the list. The share of European brands in the list has dropped to 8 per cent from 20 per cent a decade ago.
