Angola ISJ engages municipal authorities on gambling integrity drive
Regulator and local government intensify crackdown on illegal gambling in the country to strengthen the regulated market.
Angola.- Angola’s national gambling regulator, the Institute of Games Supervision (ISJ), has engaged municipal authorities to strengthen the country’s regulated gaming sector, following a coordination meeting in Luanda aimed at tackling illegal gambling.
The meeting focused on strengthening institutional cooperation and aligning enforcement strategies as authorities step up efforts to tackle illegal gambling, address associated risks and build confidence in Angola’s regulated gaming sector.
The ISJ said: “The initiative forms part of broader efforts to reinforce monitoring mechanisms within the gaming sector, with a view to mitigating the risks associated with the illicit practice of gaming activity.”
ISJ was represented by Deputy General Director Cláudio Paulo, accompanied by senior members of the institute. The session was attended by a senior municipal official responsible for the financial and budgetary portfolio, alongside other government representatives.
The ISJ reaffirmed its commitment to preserving the integrity of Angola’s gaming sector, as regulators continue efforts against illegal operators. Officials also highlighted the importance of protecting vulnerable communities, safeguarding public health and advancing responsible gambling standards.
