😱 Argentina🇦🇷: authorities in Corrientes province propose creating a specialized prosecutor’s office for illegal gambling cases

In addition, supporters of the initiative are calling for greater involvement of national authorities (including the Central Bank) in order to prevent financial operations linked to illegal gambling activities.

💬 Reminder: in Argentina, only platforms operating under the “.bet.ar” domain and holding the corresponding regulatory authorization at the provincial level are allowed to provide online betting services. The country does not have a unified national regulatory framework for online gambling, as each province is responsible for regulating the sector within its own jurisdiction.

💬 Regarding the proposed specialized prosecutor’s office: the illegal market continues to expand, and combating it requires local authorities to increase investigative capabilities and related resources. Similar structures are already in place in other provinces, including the City of Buenos Aires.

💬 Context: concerns regarding adolescent gambling addiction are currently a major topic across the country. As a result, both provincial and national political actors are increasingly engaging with the issue through related initiatives.
