Brazilian Ministry of Finance selects ABRADIE to demo Genius Sports system
The group held a workshop that outlined match-fixing prevention measures.
Brazil’s Ministry of Financial recently invited the Associação Brasileira de Defesa da Integridade do Esporte (ABRADIE) to demonstrate Genius Sports’ integrity monitoring system to local officials.
Genius Sports technology allows companies around the world to detect match-fixing incidents. As part of the demonstration, ABRADIE hosted a workshop that explained how the integrity monitoring system has aided numerous sports organizations in combatting betting corruption, including the English Premier League, DFB (German Football Association) and the NFL.
Ministry of Finance Special Advisor José Francisco Manssur said, “To deliver the Provisional Measure for sports betting in Brazil, the Ministry of Finance has drawn upon best practices from regulators around the world, and identified bet monitoring and sports integrity measures as the foundation of a well-regulated market.”
ABRADIE said implementing sports betting integrity measures is “of paramount importance to all key stakeholders” and that the organization is pleased to support the Ministry of Finance as the Brazilian regulated market continues to grow.
Group member Guilherme Buso summarized the group’s goals by saying, “ABRADIE’s mission is to bring together like-minded individuals and organizations from the entire sports and betting ecosystem to tackle the threat of betting-related corruption head on.
“Drawing on the experience of major sports leagues and federations around the world, our technology detects and analyzes match-fixing incidents, but also supports the sports organizations, sportsbooks, law enforcement and government to educate all the stakeholders and create a joint task force that can proactively combat match-fixing in Brazil.”
The organization has also conducted demonstrations for the Ministry Sports that profile AI monitoring systems that can function before and during sports matches to combat match and spot-fixing.
