To help alert suspicious activity

Swedish regulator signs integrity deal with Sportradar

Swedish gambling regulator Spelinspektionen has signed an agreement with Sportradar Integrity Services to help alert it to match fixing and other suspicious sporting activity. Under the deal, Sportradar will monitor a range of sports and competitions in Sweden and flag any suspicions of match-fixing to the local authorities.

The agreement with Sportradar also means that the Swedish regulator can purchase risk assessments to assess the degree of risk of manipulation in a specific sport.

Through the information we will receive via Sportradar, we increase our knowledge of match fixing that we can use in, among other things, our regulatory work,” commented Spelinspektionen’s investigator Daniel Frisö-Grön.

It also gives us opportunities to expand the exchange of information with sports and the police within the framework of our collaboration against match-fixing,” he added.

Earlier this month, Sportradar published its annual integrity report, revealing that a record-breaking 903 suspicious matches had been flagged in 2021.
