Brazil – July 18, 2025 www.zonadeazar.com The Rio de Janeiro State Lottery (Loterj) continues to take firm steps toward regulating Video Lottery Terminals (VLTs). During a meeting at Loterj’s headquarters, President Hazenclever Lopes Cançado and Vice President Fabíola Esteves welcomed attorneys Roberto Carvalho Brasil Fernandes and Alexandre Amaral Filho, who praised Loterj’s technical role in modernizing the sector with a focus on transparency and consumer safety.

The meeting reinforced the importance of engaging with experts to ensure innovation with responsibility and legal compliance, emphasizing Rio de Janeiro’s commitment to maintaining the integrity of the lottery market while diversifying access in a safe and efficient manner.

Representatives from Brasil Fernandes Advogados, known for their legal defense of the sector before the Supreme Federal Court (STF), highlighted that VLTs represent a new method of distributing existing lottery products rather than a new game, contributing to a stronger and more attractive environment for investment in Brazil.
