How the PSFA could help counter fraud on a path to prevention As the UK Government announces the Public Sector Fraud Authority (PSFA), Clue comments on what the initiative means for the public sector counter fraud community and progress towards fraud prevention. Fraud does not “bang, bleed, or shout” and it seldom makes headlines. But comprising nearly 40% of crime in the UK alongside cybercrime, its impact is devastating to public services.

What’s driving sports corruption? An interview with Ian Smith, Esports Integrity Commission Driven by the mainstream popularity of online gaming, Esports has become one of the fastest growing sports globally. The industry is forecast to be worth as much as $1.8 billion by the end of 2022. But as Esports gathers momentum, its growing popularity has attracted a lucrative and unregulated betting market that exposes the sport to the same risks of corruption as more traditional sports. Meanwhile, there remains no central Esports governing body, instead, invigilation is left to competition organisers. Ian Smith is Integrity Commissioner for the Esports Integrity Commission (ESIC), a non-profit members’ association established in 2016 to promote and facilitate competitive integrity in Esports. As former COO for the Federation of International Cricketers’ Associations, Ian is a “reluctant expert” on issues of sports corruption whose “fundamentals remain the same” from pitch to PC.
