Brazilian government considers restricting betting sponsorships under Rouanet Law
Brazil’s government is considering rules to prevent betting operators from promoting their brands through projects funded under the Rouanet Law. Culture Ministry teams are assessing whether to introduce the restriction by decree or legislation, and Secretary Thiago Rocha said any change would require discussion across government; projects already sponsored would not be affected.
A future restriction could change how betting operators sponsor federally incentivised cultural projects in Brazil.
