Swedish investigator proposes broader rules against unlicensed gambling
Investigator Marcus Isgren’s report proposes replacing Sweden’s online gambling “directional criterion” with a rule covering unlicensed sites accessible to Swedish players. It also proposes extending restrictions to payment and support providers and making unlicensed gambling and its promotion criminal offences; the government will prepare the proposals for referral and parliamentary debate.
The proposed rules could extend compliance and enforcement exposure to operators and payment providers serving Swedish players.
