The Malta Gaming Authority has agreed a collaborative Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the E-sports Integrity Coalition (ESIC).
The two entities have agreed to cooperate to avoid manipulation of e-sports events and competitions. The MGA, in collaboration with its licensees, will monitor and provide information to ESIC on suspicious betting patterns.
“We are delighted that the Malta Gaming Authority has agreed to work with us in making e-sports a safer wagering environment,” Ian Smith, integrity commissioner of ESIC, said.
“Adding the experience and vital information of our other partners in the information exchange to the Authority’s intelligence database and vice versa will undoubtedly strengthen all our efforts considerably.”
