Under the strategic partnership, the organisations will exchange information, documents, and analysis related to sporting integrity to combat fraud, match-fixing, and corruption.
The General Directorate National Police of Bulgaria and Sportradar will also collaborate on joint projects and explore other opportunities to support each other.
“The Memorandum of Understanding between the General Directorate National Police and Sportradar will contribute to improving cooperation in protecting and safeguarding integrity in sport and sports betting. This cooperation makes Bulgarian sport safer,” said General Directorate National Police chief commissioner Nikolay Hadzhiev.
Sportradar’s managing director of integrity services, Andreas Krannich, added, “Maintaining the integrity of global sport is our top priority, and partnerships like this help us reduce the threat of betting-related corruption. Our goal is to establish effective communication channels with the General Directorate National Police to swiftly identify and resolve integrity issues in Bulgarian sport.”
This agreement follows Sportradar’s recent announcement of a similar partnership with the West Asian Football Federation.
