The government of Chile has ordered sporting bodies and organisations to abide by the ruling of the Supreme Court related to the current legal status of online gambling activities, which will have ramifications for sponsorships from the gambling sector. While the South American nation is in the process of legislating online gambling, in September a Supreme Court judgement upheld a challenge by state-owned lottery and pools operator Polla Chilena de Beneficencia, which urged judges to deem “online gambling as an illegal activity”.

Chile's football association, the ANFP, have expressed disagreement with the ruling, and have been given until the end of the month to terminate Betsson's title sponsorship with their Primera División, while Betway have already parted way with five clubs with whom they signed with in January of 2022.

To discuss the decision, the financial ramifications this could have on Chilean football, and the full details behind the story, Joe Streeter, editor of InsiderSport welcomes SBC Noticias' Fernando Noodt, and SBC's Head of B2B Media LatAm Lucía Mouriño to provide context and expertise on Chile and the rest of the region regarding legislation and sponsorship.

US giants MGM and Caesars both suffered cyber attacks recently, with MGM being taken offline after the attack, reportedly from hacking group Scattered Spider, impacted everything from the customer website to the gaming floor to the electronic room key system to corporate emails. Caesars on the other hand, suffered an attack of their own by the more financially-motivated ALPHV, which may have led to social security numbers being compromised.

While both are back online, as a result of the attacks, both are facing multiple lawsuits due to the breaches that occurred. At iGaming Daily, we wanted to bring in an expert to explain exactly what happened, how it happened, who these groups are, and what might happen next. SBC Americas Senior Journalist Charlie Horner took on the hosting role, and welcomed twenty-year cyber security veteran Justin Albrecht, Global Director of Mobile Threat Intelligence at cloud security experts Lookout to the podcast to take us through the whole story.

The past year has seen a noticeable trend in English football which has caught a lot of public attention, that being an influx of ‘Asian betting partners’ into the Premier League, including Kaiyun Sports' front-of-shirt sponsorship deal with Nottingham Forest. 

SBC News Senior Journalist Ted Orme-Claye steps into the hosts chair to discuss Kaiyun Sports, Nottingham Forest and the many other sponsorship deals from Asian betting firms with football clubs in both England and the rest of Europe, and is joined by SBC Sponsorship Director George Harborne, and InsiderSport's Callum Williams to provide their expert insight on the topic. 

The guys discuss the realities and optics of betting sponsorships, why Asian bookmakers like to advertise on Premier League club's kits, the impact of governmental restrictions, the effects of COVID on club's sponsorship strategies, and how likely it is to see these deals become a thing of the past.

Brazil has been one of the main topics in 2023, from approving a sports betting regulation to starting an investigation into match fixing and all things in between. However, it was missing something key for the industry to develop: online casinos.

While the desire to have an online gambling industry clashed with the reality of Brazil only approving fixed odds sports betting, a recent amendment changed the whole scenario and opened the doors to the regulated online casino world.

This week, the Chamber of Deputies approved that amendment and the bill is now headed to the Senate, gaining momentum to be signed into law before the end of the year.

Joining James Ross to discuss this latest update from Brazil is Lucía Mouriño and Isadora Marcante.
