The fight against manipulation of results has been one of the flags of the entire sports betting market, clubs, federations, regulators, governing bodies and Sportradar, the leading company in this matter.
Given the repercussions that match-fixing has seen in Brazil, in addition to the fact that there has been a reduction in suspicious cases, the Public Ministry of Goiás (MP-GO), one of the first bodies to investigate criminal practices, has issued a Memorandum of Understanding ( MoU) with Sportradar.
Through this partnership, MP-GO and Sportradar will exchange data and information to safeguard sports integrity in Goiás.
Felippe Marchetti, Partnership Manager for Integrity of Sportradar in Brazil, stated: "We are pleased to further expand the Integrity Services of Sportradar in Brazil. Agreements like this with MP-GO will help us reduce corruption threats related to betting in our continuous struggle for transparency no matter Brazilian.”
Partnership between the company and the Public Ministry is another meaningless step in working to protect criminal actions and guarantee the smoothness and unpredictability of non-sporting results, protecting clubs and federations and giving greater assurance that everything happens on the field and not outside it.
A partnership with Sportradar checks on us crucial moment, when the Brazilian market prepares for the start of the regulated sports betting operation starting January 1, 2025.
Furthermore, it may enable MP-GO to share information with other agencies and regulatory bodies overseeing sports betting activity in Brazil.
