Arbroath named the UK's most investable team
THREE Scottish sides have been named in the UK's top ten most investable clubs.
The research comes from a collaboration between football finance expert Dr Rob Wilson and BetVictor.
They studied the investment potential of UK football clubs, with over 100 examined.
The study considers everything from current infrastructure and stadium utilisation to digital presence and financial health, to identify the teams that make prime candidates for expansion, and present would be buyers with the greatest investment opportunities.
Ranks are calculated based on opportunity for growth in each area. This is calculated using a weighted scoring model which combines several factors into a single score.
For digital footprint, the reseach analyses a club’s digital presence across social media and search engines. Scores consider presence in different international markets, and the desirability and profitability of being in those territories.
Infrastructure-wise, the state of a club’s infrastructure is considered by stadium condition, training facilities, youth facilities, youth recruitment, corporate facilities, and transport links.
Utilisation – a team’s stadium utilisation by assessing attendance levels, ticket sales, and ticket revenue.
And finally from a financial perspective a team’s financial health is examined by looking at revenue, net assets, net profit, wage turnover ratio, and more.
