Corruption in sport
Undermining tenets of fairness, respect, and unpredictability, high-level corruption erodes the reputation of sport and its benefits to individuals, societies, and economies by diverting them from intended recipients.
Clue for corruption in sport
By detecting threats early, conducting robust investigations, sharing intelligence with partners, sports organisations can maintain vigilance, ensure corruptors are held accountable and prevent future incidents from taking place.

Match manipulation
By removing unpredictability from sport through bribery and coercion of players and officials, organised crime groups can leverage a global betting market to exploit an expanding list of sports and events.
Clue for match manipulation
Sports teams, governing bodies, and betting companies face a vast challenge in combating ‘match fixing.’ By implementing trusted and secure methods of reporting, collaborating seamlessly, and acting on complex data with confidence, integrity teams can begin to turn the tide on the tried-and-tested criminal practice.

Doping
The pressures and demands of competition too often lead athletes and their teams to supplement dedication, training, and natural ability with prohibited medications, drugs, or treatments to improve athletic performance.
Clue for doping
Testing programmes are only part of the solution. Sports integrity teams must disrupt doping culture at its root through data-led awareness campaigns, safe and secure referral mechanisms, and proactive collaboration and intelligence sharing between a global sports integrity ecosystem.

Safeguarding
The positive impacts of sport depend on the development and protection of safe, healthy, and diverse & inclusive environments where athletes and officials can flourish at all levels. Safeguarding is a core responsibility of every sporting organisation.
Clue for safeguarding
Policy, procedure, and training provides the bedrock for safeguarding, but effective implementation requires continual risk monitoring and trusted mechanisms for reporting that provide confidence and assurance to athletes, that lead to improved outcomes from cases, and ensure wrongdoers are held to account.
