KSA targets illegal operators’ revenue channels in the Netherlands

Enforcement & compliance

The Netherlands’ KSA is working to disrupt illegal gambling operators’ access to games, advertising and payments, chairman Michel Groothuizen said in a 10 April blog post. The regulator plans to seek cooperation from banks, payment providers and legal gambling facilitators; Groothuizen said legislative changes could take at least two years to take effect.

Payment and advertising measures could require cooperation from banks, providers and licensed gambling businesses.
