KSA intensifies prevention efforts as online gambling reaches 16% of young adults
The KSA said it had intensified preventive measures after research found that 16% of Dutch adults aged 18–24 had gambled online in the past year, compared with 8% of the population overall. The study also found that the share of young adults classed as financially healthy fell from 18% in 2023 to 12% in 2024.
The figures inform the KSA's prevention work aimed at young adults, who reported higher online gambling participation than the population overall.
