Sports Integrity and Betting Markets: Detecting and Preventing Match-Fixing
Major global sporting events generate enormous betting activity, creating opportunities for match-fixing and betting market manipulation that threaten the integrity of sport. This webinar examines how integrity risks emerge within betting markets and how sportsbook compliance teams can detect and respond to suspicious activity.
The session will explore common match-fixing typologies, warning signs within betting patterns, and the role of compliance functions in monitoring markets, escalating concerns, and working with regulators and integrity bodies to protect the fairness of global sport.
The session will be delivered by Dr Declan Hill, an internationally recognized expert on match-fixing, sports corruption, and the integrity of global betting markets. Dr. Hill has advised governments, regulators, sports federations, and law enforcement agencies around the world on the risks posed by organized crime in sport. Drawing on his extensive research and investigative work, he will provide practical insights into how match-fixing schemes operate and what compliance professionals can do to identify and mitigate these threats.
