The Y&R unit, which has been evaluating the Trump company for more than a decade, reports the organization had never before experienced such a precipitous drop. Financial documents the Republican presidential frontrunner released claim his company’s “deals, brand, and branded developments” were valued at $3 billion, meaning his name is the most significant part of his portfolio.
