Pedrizzi warns Italy gambling reform could increase market concentration
Former senator Riccardo Pedrizzi warned that Italy’s gambling reform could deepen market concentration, as the government prepares to discuss a framework for land-based gambling with local authorities on 10 April. He said Lottomatica and Flutter Entertainment’s Italian businesses, Sisal and Snaitech, form two major groups, and argued that concession limits near 25% may already be exceeded.
Potential changes to concession concentration limits could affect competition among gambling operators in Italy.
