It’s all about Brazil on today’s episode of iGaming Daily, supported by Optimove. Fernando Noodt, Senior Journalist for SBC Noticias, was joined by Lucía Gando, editor of SBC Noticias, and Isadora Marcante, SBC’s Relationship Manager - Brazil, to discuss the latest updates from Brazil, as the country draws even closer to the opening of its regulated online gaming market. The trio react to the message from President Lula who warned that he will “end” online betting and gaming in the country if the new regulations do not achieve the results expected by the government, which has created “insecurity” amongst operators.  They also discuss the extensive list of authorised operators that has been released, the news that the government will try to block over 2,000 unauthorised sites and the ongoing issues in Rio de Janeiro as the Attorney General’s Office has filed a civil lawsuit to prohibit the operation of betting companies licensed by the state’s regulator, Loterj, outside of Rio. To end the episode they switch their focus to the latest from Argentina where the government of Mendoza has announced that 25% of what is collected at the provincial level from gambling and betting will be allocated to mental health and addiction programmes.  To read more about what was discussed in today's episode, click on the following links: - Bloqueio de sites de apostas irregulares começa nesta sexta (sbcnoticias.com)- Alckmin: "se a regulamentação das bets não for boa, proíbe" (sbcnoticias.com) - Presidente Lula fala em "acabar" com apostas se regulamentação não "der resultado" (sbcnoticias.com) - AGU visa restrigir operação da LOTERJ ao estado do RJ (sbcnoticias.com) - Mendoza: 25% of the proceeds from gambling will be invested in Mental Health (sbcnoticias.com) Host: Fernando NoodtGuests: Lucía Gando & Isadora Marcante Producer: Anaya McDonald Editor: James Ross Remember to check out Optimove at https://hubs.la/Q02gLC5L0 or go to Optimove.com/sbc to get your first month free when buying the industry's leading customer-loyalty service.
