At the end of the meeting, which brought together 150 representatives from regulatory bodies from ten countries with discussions on Safe Gaming and Responsible Gaming policies in Latin America, a joint memorandum was signed to exchange information on the thematic axes of regulation, internationalization, security and innovation , with the dissemination of good practices among regulated markets.
Regulators from ten countries that participated in the event ratified their commitment, support and interest in generating and strengthening communication between all actors in the sector, in addition to discussing the current situation of the industry and exchanging ideas and experiences with the aim of strengthening relationships between gaming companies and government entities.
For the president of Lottopar, Daniel Romanowski, this meeting was essential to further strengthen the regulated lottery market, with the exchange of experiences and information between the main markets in Latin America.
“In these three days it became very clear that the regulated market is the way for operators to expand their businesses, but within certain rules and regulations that bring security to everyone. In a regulated market, we offer legal security for those who want to invest and, on the other hand, we provide tools that protect bettors, making this entertainment healthier and safer,” he stated.
Romanowski also said that “the lottery market should not continue to be stigmatized, as authorized operators in Paraná, with the regulation and supervision of Lottopar, help to boost the economy with job creation, innovation and technological development and with social return for the entire population.”
The president of Coljuegos and Colombian regulator, Marco Emilio Hincapié, highlighted that “during the Summit, we sought to strengthen regional work through the creation of a Latin American Commission of Regulators, with the aim of advancing regulation, taking into account both the regulatory particularities of each country and the challenges faced by the industry. Likewise, we take advantage of this important meeting to propose the creation of an Ibero-American Lottery.”
