New Report on football governance is published, as CIES launches Sports Intelligence division

With the publication of the report "Governance Structures at National Association Level", CIES is pleased to announce the launch of CIES Sports Intelligence, its new research and analysis division.

This first Sports Intelligence report focuses on a selection of 20 countries from all six confederations and provides insight into one of the crucial aspects of world football. The study analyses five main areas: General Assembly (GA), Executive Committee (ExCo), President, judicial bodies and reporting activities. As findings are standardised in their form, the document allows benchmarking between individual case studies and the identification of potential trends across different regions of the world.

The full report is available for free and can be downloaded HERE.

 

About CIES Sports Intelligence

This new division has been created to respond to an increasing demand from sport organisations for independent reporting and informed advice. As sports bodies are required to be more accountable than ever in their activities and in facing the challenges of managing their sports, information and data have become essential. CIES Sports Intelligence aims to deliver substantial value for stakeholders in the industry, by supplying them with factual information that helps them benchmark their organisations and sports, as well as support their decision-making processes and orient their strategies. 

Building on more than 20 years of experience and on a solid global network at CIES, the Sports Intelligence division aims to help sports organisations understand how to react and adapt to continuous changes and innovation within the industry, as well as seize the opportunities and mitigate the risks in this ever-evolving landscape. Adopting a fact-based and descriptive approach, CIES Sports Intelligence is equipped to analyse and interpret a wide range of different subjects, including economic, legal, governance and development aspects.

With services that focus on spreading new insights and knowledge, CIES Sports Intelligence's objective is to support stakeholders in the promotion of better governance and management of sport based on informed decision-making.
