The conference will feature: 

• A morning session run in conjunction with GambleAware. 
• New findings relating to Corporate Social Responsibility following a recent industry study.
• New treatment and harm minimisation initiatives.
• The unveiling of a special report by the RGA in conjunction with PwC looking at how customer data can be used to identify problem gambling.
• The emerging trends in the pan-European adoption of 4th AMLD, including specific input from the Czech Republic which has recently transposed the directive.

The final session will look at Brexit from a European perspective, and examine the implications of this paradigm shift in the relationship between the UK and the rest of Europe. Speakers will examine this from a jurisdictional perspective, including the implications for Malta and Gibraltar, and look at other potentially unforseen implications relating to tax and broadcasting rights.
