The initiative, which began on April 23, has already seen ISJ delegations visit Malanje, Benguela, Cabinda and Hu\u00edla, with further stops planned in Zaire and Huambo. The strategy marks a shift towards more localised supervision<\/strong>, bringing the regulator closer to operators, players <\/strong>and key stakeholders while enhancing its capacity for on-the-ground intervention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Led by Director General Nerethz Tati and Deputy Director General Cl\u00e1udio Paulo, the visits were carried out by separate teams supported by technical staff tasked with introducing provincial work units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At each location, ISJ officials engaged provincial governments<\/strong>, including governors and vice-governors, while receiving support and logistical assistance from Provincial Finance Delegations, whose contribution helped advance work agendas and improve local institutional coordination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The visits also reinforced collaboration with key justice and security bodies<\/strong>, including the Attorney General\u2019s Office (PGR), the Criminal Investigation Service (SIC), the State Intelligence and Security Service (SINSE) and the National Police.<\/p>\n\n\n\n These engagements are aimed at improving cooperation across institutions, boosting enforcement <\/strong>against illegal gambling and related illicit activities, while supporting a safer and more transparent operating environment for licensed operators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to Tati, the expansion represents a key step forward for the sector. \u201cThe expansion of the ISJ to the provinces represents a structuring step towards strengthening our supervisory capacity, allowing for closer, more effective action<\/strong> aligned with the challenges of the sector. We are committed to promoting legality, transparency and responsible gaming throughout the national territory,\u201d said Tati.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ISJ is also intensifying its focus on key areas including illegal gambling, anti-money laundering <\/strong>and counter-terrorist financing measures, as well as ensuring compliance with gaming legislation. Promoting responsible gambling remains central to its long-term vision for a sustainable market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The ISJ said: \u201cThe Gaming Supervision Institute thus reiterates its commitment to legality, responsibility and the protection of the public interest<\/strong>, actively contributing to the balanced and sustainable development of the sector in Angola.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The rollout of provincial teams is expected to enhance monitoring, expand enforcement capacity and improve compliance standards<\/strong>, while deepening engagement with stakeholders across the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With additional visits imminent, ISJ is setting a clear direction for Angola\u2019s gambling sector-focused on effective oversight, market integrity and sustainable growth.<\/p>\n\n\nDriving regulatory compliance nationwide<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
