The Sport Integrity Global Alliance (SIGA) is advancing the conversation on Sports Betting Integrity in Brazil with the launch of a new special Brazilian edition of the Sport Integrity Journal (SIJ), entitled “Integrity in Sports Betting: Building a Trusted Market in Brazil.”
One year after its first edition in Portuguese, the new publication captures the progress achieved in the country in terms of regulation and reinforces SIGA LATIN AMERICA’s commitment to developing an ethical, transparent, and sustainable ecosystem — including an article on the SIGA Forum on Betting, Integrity, and Regulation (FAIR).
Structured around five thematic pillars, this edition addresses: the prevention of match-fixing; education and regulation to promote responsible gambling; financial integrity, governance, and advertising; tackling the illegal betting market; and, finally, transparency through the monitoring of individuals connected to sport.
The diversity of authors and guest experts reflects the wide range of sectors impacted by integrity in the sports environment and in fixed-odds betting. Bringing together representatives from government, operators, clubs, federations, legal professionals, self-regulatory bodies, and technology companies, the edition presents different perspectives and practical solutions.
By promoting dialogue and fostering a culture of integrity, SIGA contributes to strengthening trust in sport and in the regulated market, reaffirming its role as an independent and constructive voice in the region.
