Helping the authority with its work in protecting consumers, public health and tax revenue with its licensing system, the situation description will assist in achieving a “more comprehensive picture of illegal gambling online in Sweden”.
Camilla Rosenberg, Director General of Spelinspektionen, commented: “The situation description will help us in the work to counteract illegal online gambling. Other authorities and players in the gambling market will also be able to benefit from the result.”
Countering illegal gambling outside of the Swedish licensing system, the situation description will aid Spelinspektionen by identifying key actors and methods used that allow for the circumnavigation of gambling legislation and other relevant legislation.
The service will also describe the current situation for illegal online gambling in Swede..
