Summary

Introduction

Present-day commercial sport is strictly tied to money, which allows it to exist. Many authors pay attention on emotional relationships between football fans and clubs. The main goal of this article is to prove the existence of relationships between rates of return of companies involved in sport sponsoring and sport results of sponsored clubs and that they are statistically significant.

The data of the research were quotations of stocks from the Warsaw Stock Exchange from 1.07.2010 to 30.06.2017 and information about football matches’ results for chosen clubs of Ekstraklasa from the 2010/2011 to 2016/2017 seasons. The verification of the hypothesis was based on the (G)ARCH-type models
