Spending for
the 2014 World Cup in Brazil explodes beyond prediction and reaches R$ 26.5
billion

 

The cost for organizing the 2014 World Cup has now reached R$26.5
billion. The figure is R$2.7 billion higher than forecasted in the first
balance of Brazil’s budget, in January 2011, and will increase.

 

For the federal government, this account is not yet
closed. Asked by Folha, the Sports Ministry said the World Cup investment is
expected to reach R$33 billion.

 

Considered the current value – R$26.5 billion – the
country will finance 85.5% of the works related to the event. The money comes
from federal, state and municipal governments. The number is based on the
latest version of the responsibility matrix, consolidated in December 2012.

 

The document cites spending on works of urban
mobility, stadiums, ports, airports, telecommunications, security and tourism
related to the World Cup. Furthermore, it points out those responsible for
bearing the costs.

 

The figure has been updated with the price increase of
Maracana and with the values of the temporary installations around the arenas
of the Confederations Cup and the World Cup. To serve the two tournaments,
these structures will cost R$900 million to the hosts.

 

Of all the money that will be disbursed to hold the
World Cup, only R$3.8 billion will be funded by the private sector.

 

Another R$14.9 billion will be financed by the federal
government through loans or direct investment in the works. The remaining R$7.7
billion will come from the States and the host cities.

 

Most non-government investments will be made in
airports – R$3.64 billion will be invested in Guarulhos, Campinas, Brasília and
Natal.

 

With the exception of Natal, these terminals will be
operated by concessionaires. After construction, the investors will exploit
them commercially.

 

In the construction and renovation of stadiums, the
disparity is even greater. Direct investment from the private sector is
negligible.

 

In 2008, the year following the announcement that
Brazil would host the 2014 World Cup, then Sports Minister Orlando Silva Jr.
told Folha that not “a penny of public money” would be spent on World
Cup stadiums.

 

Asked about government spending, the Sports Ministry
argues that the World Cup is “a great opportunity for the government to
accelerate infrastructure works and perform major interventions for the
population.”

 

The ministry even states that spending on structure
and services cannot be considered “a specific cost of organizing the
event.”

 

The COL (Local Organizing Committee) had not responded
to questions from the reporter by the completion of this edition.
