Sports, Entertainment & the Arts

Sport, entertainment and the arts are not only part of our social and cultural fabric, they strongly contribute to our world economy and bring various localities, regions and nations together on the basis of common interests. They are industries that involve tremendous amounts of manpower and high levels of investment; and industries where economic losses can occur due to unforeseen events.

Economic damage quantification can sometimes be difficult to perform due to outdated paper documentation, tax and labor issues and other factors such as complicated budgeting procedures.
