The ISJ and ARSEG sign a protocol to enhance supervision, prevent money laundering and ensure transparency in Angola\u2019s gaming and insurance sectors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Angola.- Angola\u2019s Gaming Supervision Institute <\/strong>(ISJ), the country\u2019s gaming regulator, has partnered with the Angolan Insurance Regulation and Supervision Agency<\/strong> (ARSEG) to reinforce legality<\/strong>, security and stability in the gaming and insurance sectors. The protocol was signed in Luanda by ISJ Director-General Nerethz Tati <\/strong>and ARSEG Chairwoman Filomena Airosa Manjata.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The agreement establishes a formal framework<\/strong> for inter-institutional collaboration<\/strong> to strengthen supervision, improve regulatory coordination<\/strong> and enhance compliance across the sectors, with a key focus on preventing money laundering<\/strong> and terrorist financing (ML\/TF).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ISJ said: \u201cThe dynamic nature, high volume<\/strong> and speed <\/strong>of financial transactions in the gaming sector make it particularly vulnerable to risks of misuse, hence the importance of concerted actions that ensure effective and ongoing monitoring<\/strong>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boosting Angola\u2019s gaming oversight<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

ARSEG highlighted the need for collaboration<\/strong> across sectors: \u201cThe increasing interconnectedness between gaming and insurance requires joint strategies<\/strong>, information sharing and coordinated training,” said Manjata.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The protocol responds to two institutional imperatives<\/strong> highlighted by ISJ: externally, fulfilling Angola\u2019s high-level commitments, including the FATF-linked Action Plan; and internally, implementing the Gaming Activity Law<\/strong> (Law No. 17\/24, October 28, 2024), which mandates cooperation between public authorities to prevent money laundering and the proliferation of weapons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through the agreement, the ISJ aims to ensure Angola\u2019s gaming sector operates transparently<\/strong>, legally and responsibly<\/strong>, contributing positively to the national economy while safeguarding the integrity of the financial system.<\/p>\n\n\n
