Karkuti Discusses World Cup Costs and Gains
The financial article of the 2026 World Cup discusses how the current tournament is considered the most successful so far in terms of funding. Preparation costs have decreased thanks to its organization across three countries—the United States, Canada, and Mexico—and ticket revenues have risen to $3 billion. Additionally, broadcast rights and sponsorship revenues have increased. The World Trade Organization forecasted that the event will add $80 billion to the global economy and create approximately 824,000 jobs. It is also expected that FIFA will generate nearly $9 billion in tournament revenue, although the direct profits for the host countries typically do not exceed the invested amounts.
