Abstract
The study presents a systematization of modern theoretical approaches to the management of holding structures in the jewelry industry. Based on the dual nature of the category of ownership as a real asset and legal law, the definition of a holding company is given, and the current legal basis for the functioning of such structures in Russian economic practice is summarized, taking into account recent changes in corporate legislation. The paper shows the historical dynamics of the development of holdings in the global context, determined by the stages of industrial revolutions and the peculiarities of national economic models. The main content of the work is devoted to the detailed disclosure of five key management approaches: operational (centralized), strategic, financial (investment), institutional and digital. Each approach is analyzed in terms of its conceptual foundations, practical implementation, and specific application in the jewelry industry. Special attention is paid to the impact of digitalization and technological transformation on the evolution of management models, as well as the role of holdings in building sustainable and transparent value chains. The research is based on an analysis of the practices of leading global corporations such as LVMH, Richemont and Signet Jewelers. The results of the analysis make it possible to identify contradictions and formulate directions for improving the management systems of holdings, taking into account industry specifics, the requirements of global competition and the challenges of the modern digital economy.
