KSA orders Unibet operator to revise anti-money laundering checks
The Netherlands’ KSA ordered Optdeck Service Limited, which operates Unibet, to improve customer due diligence after finding breaches of the Wwft. It said transaction monitoring and controls did not match the operator’s AML policy in practice, and ordered changes to thresholds for high-risk classifications and source-of-funds checks; a follow-up inspection is planned.
The directive requires changes to Unibet’s risk thresholds and due diligence, with a KSA follow-up inspection planned.
