Alternative Financing Strategies for the Professionalization and Self-Management of Sports in Mexico

  • Alessia Quispe Independiente

Abstract

Sports in Mexico are evolving towards alternative financing methods to overcome their dependence on public funding. Models such as equity crowdfunding, fan tokens, and no-credit-check loans streamline access to capital. These tools democratize investment, allowing support through a simple bank deposit. This shift promotes transparency and self-management, professionalizing the industry in the face of current economic volatility.
