Lottopar celebrates its affiliation as the first Brazilian institution to become a regulatory member of the United Lotteries for Integrity in Sports (ULIS). In other words, an international non-profit association made up of state lotteries.
ULIS has a broad network of members and partners and is dedicated to preserving the integrity and fundamental values of sport. As well as combating corruption, in particular the manipulation of sporting competitions.
Headquartered in Lausanne, Switzerland, with offices in Canada, Denmark and Hong Kong, ULIS plays a crucial role in monitoring sports betting globally, identifying suspicious patterns.
In collaboration with the International Olympic Committee and Interpol, ULIS is one of three observers of the Statutory Committee of the Council of Europe Convention on the Manipulation of Sports Competitions, known as the Macolin Convention.
