Sky Bet’s decision to join ESSA increases the body’s total membership to 18 and further enhances the organisation’s ability to detect, deter and report corrupt sports betting within the regulated sector.

Based in Brussels, Belgium, ESSA already has agreements in place with more than 20 sports federations and regulators including Fifa, the IOC, the UK Gambling Commission and the Malta Lotteries and Gaming Authority.

“ESSA sets the standard with regard to sports betting integrity reporting practices and we are joining an association which is effective, globally recognised and includes the majority of the market leaders in regulated sports betting,” said Sky Bet’s director of trading and operations, Tim Bishop.

“In short, ESSA provides the best platform from which to engage with other stakeholders to combat an international cross-sector threat.”

Khalid Ali, secretary general of ESSA, added: “I am delighted that Sky Bet has decided to join ESSA.

“It is a well-known brand and is an important addition to our evolving membership as we enter what will be yet another important year in the sports betting integrity debate.

“Sky Bet’s input will further enhance ESSA’s ability to fully represent and reflect the regulated betting sector’s position at important national and international sports betting integrity discussions.”
