Previous studies are yet to investigate the combined effect of brand equity components (perceived quality, brand awareness, brand image and brand loyalty) to manage overall brand equity.

Second, this study investigates the impact of brand experience on CBBE components in Islamic banking which has not been tested before in Islamic banking.
