UK Gambling Commission proceeds with financial risk assessments, BGC objects
The Gambling Commission confirmed it will introduce Financial Risk Assessments for customers with high spending, according to the report. The Betting and Gaming Council said it was disappointed with the decision and argued that concerns about data reliability and consumer effects remain unresolved. The regulator delayed implementation and raised thresholds, the BGC said.
UK operators may need to adapt checks for high-spending customers as the regulator proceeds despite BGC objections.
