Sports and Economics with Orly Garcia, SVP Head of Sports and Entertainment Division

Working in the banking industry and engaging with athletes daily, I often ponder the intriguing correlation between sports and economics.

The bond between the two fields has always been dynamic, and in today’s landscape, it’s more pronounced than ever.

On a macroeconomic level, sports significantly contribute to the economy through job creation, tourism, and infrastructure development. Understanding these implications is paramount for leagues and teams to navigate the complexities of the current economy.

Moreover, the intersection of sports and economics extends to player contracts, sponsorship deals, and the advancement of innovative sports technologies. These elements not only stimulate economic activity but also demonstrate the impact of economic principles on the sports ecosystem.

As we observe the increasing parallels between sports and economics, it is essential to analyze how these dynamics shape the future of both sectors.

The integration of economic and financial strategies in sports management and the use of sports as an economic driver highlight the intricate relationship between the two domains.

I firmly believe that a strong relationship with your financial institution is crucial for the success of both realms. Trust and relationships form the foundation of most endeavors in life.

The relationship between sports and economics is fascinating and ever-evolving. As we look to the future, this intersection will continue to shape both sectors profoundly. Understanding and leveraging these connections will be key to success for financial institutions, athletes, and sports organizations alike.


By fostering strong relationships and providing tailored financial solutions, we can work together to achieve our goals, whether on the playing field or in the boardroom. I feel fortunate to provide financial solutions to our clients and cultivate the trust and relationships necessary to achieve all our goals together.
