The study is from the Rosenberg International Center of Franchising at the University of New Hampshire’s Whittemore School of Business and Economics.

The center maintains a Franchise 50 Index, which tracks publicly traded companies in the United States engaged in business format franchising.

The index climbed 9.3 percent in the third quarter of 2009, marking the second consecutive quarterly increase since it began declining in the fourth quarter of 2007, the Rosenberg Center said.
