iGaming Daily’s Road to Lisbon series continues as SBC News Editor Ted Orme-Claye sits down with Alex Roberts, Director of Policy at the Betting and Gaming Council. Together, they unpack the UK government’s shifting stance on the gambling black market and what it means for the industry moving forward.

  • What are the most efficient policies and best practices for the regulated industry to respond to the risk of the black market?
  • What key indicators should operators and regulators alike look out for that suggest a customer might be moving to unlicensed sites?
  • Do certain industry practices, like customer account limits, unintentionally push players to the black market?
  • How much of a role do white-label partnerships and affiliate platforms play in promoting unlicensed activity to UK customers?
  • Is there a risk that warnings about the black market are falling on deaf ears among politicians, and what can the industry do to better collaborate with the government?
Join Alex at SBC Summit Lisbon for the panel: Does offshore always mean dangerous? - Player protection in black and grey markets
