6 Olympic business cycle VS classical business cycle The common features 1) Fluctuations (waves) 2) Length 10 years (Juglar cycle) 3) The same phases Differences 1) The different order of phases 2) Consequences (for some countries Olympic business cycle is cause of growth, for another the cause for regression) 3) Olympic business cycle is a unique cycle for the country, but the classical business cycle is regular (take place one after another). It has the same economic features in different countries but depends on cultural specific and mentality. 4) Olympic business cycle is either help to economy to overcome the depression or to make a strong support for stable growth. 5) Classical business cycle has the same influence in different countries. Olympic business cycle depends on the scale of country economy. 6

7 2.1. Pre-Olympic Stage Main Indicators of Olympic Bids International Olympic Committee has developed a special system of Applicants and Candidate cities estimation. Candidature Acceptance Procedure includes 11 indicators: 1. Government support, legal issues and public opinion (including compliance with the Olympic Charter and the World Anti-Doping Code*); 2. General infrastructure 3. Sports venues 4. Olympic Village(s) 5. Environmental conditions and impact 6. Accommodation 7. Transport concept 8. Safety and security 9. Experience from past sports events 10. Finance 11. Overall project and legacy Independent analytical agencies calculate BIDINDEXes: - Gamesbids. - Aroundtherings. 7

8 General Approach 1. Each indicator can be in diapason from 1 to The acceptable minimum is If city receives less than 6 then this indicator is colored in matrix in red color. 4. It is the signal that city has not enough developed in this sphere. 5. Let s illustrate this procedure on the example of Games of XXXI Olympiad

34 4. ADMINISTRATION AND FINANCING MODELS OF SUMMER OLYMPIC GAMES IN We followed by Holger Preuss model (2000). But we only a little change the level of models defining. 1. Model of public administration and financing (the share of public participation more than 67%); 2. Mixed model of administration and financing (the share of public participation from 33% to 67%); 3. Model of private administration and financing (the share of public participation less than 33%) 34 34

40 The Role of Economy Size in Defined Models It should also be noted that analysis of different models of administration and financing must also take into account the size of the economies themselves. Olympic Games of 1984 and 1996 in the United States had no noticeable effect on the economy in view of the fact that the correlation of the budget of the Games and the U.S. budget was too small about 0.01% per capita. GDP per capita in the United States was growing steadily, but the GDP growth rates ranged. Otherwise this correlation reached 1,13% per capita annually in some countries (Greece). Examples: USA, etc. 40

41 5. SOCHI 2014 CASE. Usually it is divided 4 main levels of administration and financing: 1. the state of the Olympic Games host-country, 2. the region/ district, 3. the city (the capital of the Games) and 4. the private sector. All of these levels is involved in Sochi Olympics organizing: - the President and the Government of Russia, - Krasnodar Region Administration, - Sochi Administration and - private sector. The Games Organizing Committee is usually responsible for Games preparation. In Russia it is the "Sochi 2014" Organizing Committee Created by the analysis of Russian State Laws and Official documents Sochi 2014 OCOG 41 41

47 Sochi 2014 Summary. Model of public administration and financing; 1) institutional preconditions for the effective private sector development; 2) world s best practice implementation; 3) features private business oriented management on the state level. 47

48 Conclusion (1) Olympic business cycle is a specific type of middle run business cycle. Olympic business cycle can help to overcome the country regression or make an impulse for rapid economy growth. The cost-benefit analysis and correlation between economic and political business cycles have shown that the highest accumulation of financial and administrative resources is needed on pre-olympic stage. Otherwise the payback of the Games and its legacy depends on the program which will be realized on post-olympic Stage. The econometrical analysis has shown that GDP growth is higher during the Olympic business cycle. As a result, countries can give the impulse to the economy through the Games organizing. The payback of the Games and Mid Run-Long Run economic growth in host country depends on the model of administration and financing which was chosen for Games organizing. 48

49 Conclusion (2) There are 3 main models of Olympic Games administration and financing: - Model of public administration and financing - Model of private administration and financing - Mixed model of administration and financing The effectiveness of the Olympic Games can be understood in a narrow (direct payback of the Games) and a wide (due to the Games set the stage for long-term and sustainable economic development) sense of the word. If private management model and financing payback of the Games means success for the organizers and investors. The population of the Olympic Games, with high probability, slightly felt the economic impact of this event. If the model of governance and financing - Games organizing is the way to improve infrastructure, to stimulate demand and improve the quality and standard of living. 49
