Client Sectors - Sports Betting

Sports betting operators face a multitude of challenges in today’s marketplace as the sector goes through a period of upheaval. In Europe, national betting monopolies have found themselves subject to legal challenge by the European Commission, but as new markets appear to be on the cusp of opening up, sports betting has found itself under renewed scrutiny among policy makers with corruption and integrity issues rising to the surface. Private betting operators have also found themselves subject to legal challenge by sports event organizers claiming that ownership rights over betting opportunities.

With online sports betting continuing to grow, new opportunities are also emerging in the land-based sector. The Italian betting market has been completely redrawn, for example, by the issuance of betting shop licences to dozens of new market entrants since 2006, with several Spanish regions also coming to regulate retail sports betting for the first time.
