The Ministry of Women and Social Affairs of Ethiopia has announced that it is working to get sports betting banned in the country.

Abebe Haimanot, a representative of the Ministry’s Youth Personnel Development Directorate, said works were underway to get sports betting banned taking into consideration the issue of youth and youth personality development as well as various economic and social crises the sector is causing.

He said that although various discussion forums and movements have been organised to push for an end of sports betting, due to various reasons, such forums are not being adequately conducted.

Abebe further said that based on a series of surveys conducted by the ministry at various times, sports betting is identified as posing a risk to young people and youths alike.

The Ministry has started by classifying sports betting as gambling, the official said, which has multifaceted problems in itself.

“Gambling brings a social crisis that can take teenagers and adults into unwanted paths,” he said, adding that it also “discourages” anyone from working and changing lives, which can also lead to the disintegration of the family. Furthermore, Abebe said the sector also causes various psychological problems such as “depression and suicidal thoughts,” and called on all concerned stakeholders to take timely measures against it.

The Ministry already announced its plans to ban sports betting a few months ago, but 05 March betting firms requested the government to reconsider its plans before taking actions. The firms argued “betting is not gambling.”

“We are receiving a lot of negative comments from the community about sports betting. But that is not true. We are legally licensed by the National Lottery and we are also obeying our social responsibility,” Vegas Sport Betting Executive Director, Yonas G. Alemu, said.

DeepDive launches AI platform to strengthen Enhanced Due Diligence for gaming operators’ anti-money laundering efforts

DeepDive today announced the launch of a revolutionary AI platform for Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance teams that conduct Enhanced Due Diligence (EDD) and player investigations.

AML teams at gaming operators face an impossible trade-off, they can either conduct thorough investigations that take days, or fast investigations that may miss critical intelligence. On top of that they have to be able to assess source of funds on customers all over the world.  DeepDive combines multi-language web search and global regulatory compliance data checks to extend the reach of EDD. Compliance teams can now sift through the digital ocean of open-source data including public records, corporate filings, court documents, news archives, social media profiles and PEP, sanctions and watchlist data to build customer intelligence.

Using a unique combination of search tools, natural language processing, entity resolution and generative AI, DeepDive enables EDD research to go further and deeper, accessing more sources, in any language or alphabet.  Instead of analysts spending hours clicking through search results and manually cross-referencing information, DeepDive’s AI processes hundreds of sources simultaneously and presents EDD reports viewable by timeline, alert type or risk category. Analysts can then interrogate the body of knowledge with the built-in chatbot to get to the heart of the matter, helping them make more informed risk decisions.

The team behind DeepDive is staffed by industry veterans that have previously launched, scaled and exited several fraud investigation and KYC platforms.

 “DeepDive addresses the pain points facing compliance teams such as time-intensive manual research, incomplete data, language barriers, false positives, and the challenge of processing vast amounts of information at scale,” said David Pope, COO at DeepDive.

“We’ve now completed a successful six-month beta with MLROs and outsourced EDD providers. DeepDive has helped them build deeper intelligence on high-risk customers from all over the world, in a fraction of the time.  Not only are we uncovering intelligence that the manual EDD approach misses, but with the time saved, gaming operators can extend EDD across a wider set of customer transactions.”

DeepDive strengthens EDD by creating multiple search permutations across publicly available data and targeted compliance databases in relevant languages and local search engines. After creating the most exhaustive possible dataset for analysis, entity resolution refines the data pool to remove false positives.  Multiple generative AI tools are then used to build a structured intelligence report with full citations to original sources and an audit trail.

The DeepDive report covers personal background, legal issues, financial integrity, compliance history, and key relationships, revealing financial insight, known associates, locations, company linkages, political connections, and criminal activity—all structured for immediate analysis.
