چکیده [English]

The purpose of this research was to investigate the relationship between customer equity and the performance of Parsian International Hotels Corporation. For this reason it’s an applied and descriptive research. A review of the current literature revealed three key determinants of customer equity: (1)value equity, (2) brand equity and (3) relationship equity. In order to examine the proposed hypothesis Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was run using a sample of 384 guests of Parsian hotels.The main data were obtained from a questionnaire. The results demonstrate that value equity and brand equity are positively correlated with financial and non-financial performance of Parsian hotels. Also it was found that despite positive relationship between relationship equity and financial performance, this factor is not correlated with non-financial performance.
