Match-fixing in Sport – A mapping of criminal law provisions in EU 27

The purpose of this study is to illustrate how corruption in sport, specifically match-fixing, is covered in national criminal law. To this end, an extensive survey with national ministries in the 27 Member States, sporting organisations and betting operators was carried out. Information provided by these key stakeholders and completed by desk-based research, enabled the identification of the most relevant provisions that can be applied to episodes of match-fixing as well as existing case law.
