Key risks and issues

Key issues and risks

  • Accessibility of online gambling: The 24/7 availability of online gambling has changed how and when consumers gamble
  • Anonymity within premises-based gambling: Most land based gambling is conducted without identification of customers limiting the scope for player-centric controls
  • Advertising: Gambling advertising must be socially responsible, it must not be targeted at under 18s, and its content must not encourage irresponsible gambling behaviour.
