It has been able to draw $2.484B from the sale of television rights (the World Cup accounts for 98% of that). The second revenue component is marketing rights on which FIFA has been able to considerably monetize over time. While marketing rights, meaning allowing \u201cpartners\u201d to advertise during the World Cup and other events, stand for $1.629B in total, again the World Cup is the leading driver as it accounts for roughly 97%. In order to increase its ability to monetize on marketing, FIFA has separated advertisers into three categories: (1) FIFA Partners, which are the major FIFA sponsors year round, (2) FIFA World Cup Sponsors, allowed to use the event globally as part of their advertising campaigns, and (3) National Supporters, local companies from the hosting country. This split allows further realization of the great commercial asset that is the World Cup.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6645\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6645\" style=\"width: 514px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6645\" src=\"https:\/\/i4tsk12in2b2y7uts14c528g-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/12\/Expenses.png\" alt=\"Expenses\" width=\"514\" height=\"663\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d3.harvard.edu\/platform-rctom\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/12\/Expenses.png 703w, https:\/\/d3.harvard.edu\/platform-rctom\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/12\/Expenses-233x300.png 233w, https:\/\/d3.harvard.edu\/platform-rctom\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2015\/12\/Expenses-465x600.png 465w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 514px) 100vw, 514px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6645\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Source: FIFA Financial Report 2011-2014<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>True to Its Cause?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While FIFA has obviously been able to reel in the big dough by utilizing its assets (by \u201cTouching the World\u201d), the question arises with regard to the level to which it conforms to its stated missions of \u201cDeveloping the Game\u201d and \u201cBuilding a Better Future\u201d. For that we should look at the expenses side of the income statement.<\/p>\n<p>Reviewing it, we can see that FIFA invests 72% of its expenses (which amount to a total of 94% of its revenue) back into its defined missions, 52% into event related expenses (i.e. \u201cTouch the World\u201d), and 20% into development-related expenses, such as financial assistance to Football associations worldwide, training programs, and social initiatives through sports. The remaining 28% are spent mostly on operating activities and general expenditures.<\/p>\n<p>On paper, this looks like a success.
