    En este artículo se presenta un análisis descriptivo de las principales políticas y regulaciones que las ligas de deportes de equipo han introducido para mejorar el balance competitivo, tales como el sistema de reparto de ingresos, los topes salariales y las restricciones a la movilidad de los jugadores. El impacto del reparto de ingresos en el balance competitivo resulta ser bastante complicado, dependiendo, principalmente, de los objetivos de los propietarios de los equipos y de la inclusión o no del factor «calidad absoluta de la liga» en la función de ingresos de los equipos. También se considera diferentes variantes de topes salariales y de restricciones a la movilidad de los jugadores, entre ellas el sistema de transferencias.
