Brazil.- May 13, 2026 www.zonadeazar.com Advanced Compliance Technology (ACT) entered into a partnership with the Federação Norte-rio-grandense de Futebol to support sports integrity initiatives in Brazilian football amid the ongoing regulation of sports betting in the country.

The agreement includes the implementation of monitoring and educational programmes aimed at protecting competitions and athletes through the use of real-time monitoring technology and specialised analytical tools developed by the company.

The regional football federation, affiliated with the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF), will work alongside ACT to assess the needs of leagues operating within Brazil’s emerging regulated betting market.

As part of the initiative, ACT will conduct an operational review of the current competitive landscape and develop educational programmes tailored to the Brazilian sports sector.

Meanwhile, officials from the Federação Norte-rio-grandense de Futebol said the agreement aims to strengthen athlete awareness and contribute to the long-term integrity and sustainability of Brazilian football.
