Rio Grande do Norte sets anti-money-laundering rules for lottery operators
Rio Grande do Norte's finance secretariat issued rules requiring lottery operators to implement controls against money laundering, terrorist financing and the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. The measures include compliance programmes, suspicious-transaction reporting, traceable operations and bettor records; the ordinance takes effect 30 days after publication, with inspection and enforcement rules starting on 1 June 2026.
Lottery operators in the state face new mandatory compliance, monitoring and record-keeping duties.
