Combating Sports Corruption: Insights from Sportradar’s 2023 Report on Match-Fixing and Wagering Fraud

BetComply, a company that offers solutions for regulatory adherence, has introduced a new product in the Dutch market called ComplyCheck. This product aims to assist licensed gaming operators in ensuring their compliance with all regulations established by the Netherlands Gaming Authority (KSA).

ComplyCheck functions as a self-assessment mechanism. Operators respond to inquiries and furnish documentation to demonstrate their fulfillment of requirements. Subsequently, BetComply examines all materials and alerts the operator of any potential concerns.

This is particularly crucial given the KSA’s stringent enforcement of regulations, which has included imposing substantial financial penalties on companies operating without a license. BetComply’s product seeks to provide operators with assurance and help them avert such sanctions.

A worrisome pattern in athletics is emerging, as evidenced by Sportradar, a leading sports information and honesty organization, which recently published its yearly study on game manipulation called “Wagering Fraud and Match-Fixing in 2023.” This document probably outlines the newest tactics employed by dishonest individuals and emphasizes areas of increasing worry for both sporting bodies and their supporters.
