The Promise Index is a brand evaluation and performance tool that tracks how well brands are keeping their promises and predicts their future revenue growth. The study is carried out on the annual basis by Promise, a London based brand consultancy, supported by the London School of Economics (LSE).
The Promise Index was launched in 2004 and is now in its 6th year.The brands tracked in the index have grown from around 100 in its first year to 159 in 2009. While the core set of brands is broadly consistent, to allow comparisons year on year, new brands are added each year and others removed as companies merge, go out of business (MFI, Woolworths...). The Index measures UK consumer opinion only. The latest data and supporting commentary can be found on the company's website.

Famous quotes containing the words promise and/or index:
“The parent who loves his child dearly but asks for nothing in return might qualify as a saint, but he will not qualify as a parent. For a child who can claim love without meeting any of the obligations of love will be a self-centered child and many such children have grown up in our time to become petulant lovers and sullen marriage partners because the promise of unconditional love has not been fulfilled.”
—Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
“Exile as a mode of genius no longer exists; in place of Joyce we have the fragments of work appearing in Index on Censorship.”
—Nadine Gordimer (b. 1923)
