Spelinspektionen urges Sweden to regulate gambling involving local consumers

Sweden’s Spelinspektionen called for a shift from rules targeting operators based on their marketing direction to a model covering gambling involving Swedish consumers. Its report said 86% of gambling occurred within the licensed system, while nearly two-thirds of observed unlicensed activity did not meet the current threshold for illegality. Director General Camilla Rosenborg said a government review was due by 17 September that year.
