We compare three methods for evaluating the impacts of a mega-event: Input-Output, CGE and CBA. IO has limitations due its insufficient consideration of substitution and saturation effects. CBA requires more methodological consistency. CGE appears very promising but it does not always sufficiently consider specificities of mega-events. The two last methods must improve in order to reach a convincing analysis and it would benefit from being combined with CBA to provide a more complete picture.

Confrontiamo tre metodi disponibili per valutare l’impatto di un grande evento: Input-Output, Computable General Equilibrium e Analisi Costi-Benefici. L’IO ha limiti legati all’insufficiente considerazione degli effetti di sostituzione e di saturazione. L’ACB necessi-ta probabilmente un’ulteriore maturazione metodologica. Il CGE è promittente ma sembra necessaria una maggiore considerazione delle specificità dei grandi eventi e un avvicina-mento con l’ACB per giungere a una valutazione complessiva.

Keywords: Input Output; Cost-Benefit Analysis; Computable General Equilibrium; Mega-events.
