Every year, Interbrand ranks the top 100 best global brands. On this list are brands many of us recognize in an instant: Apple, Google, Amazon, Coca-Cola. McDonald’s, at #9, is so recognizable that 88 percent of surveyed individuals could recognize the company’s famed golden arches, and only 54 percent could recognize the Christian cross. Also on the list, however, are names and logos you may have seen but are not as familiar with such as AXA, Allianz, and Santander.
