Introduction
Introduction
Welcome to the Vixio Regulatory Intelligence Webinar. My name is James Lee, Senior Business Development Manager at Vixio Gambling Compliance, speaking from London, England. I am joined by my colleague Algra Lapetina, who leads our regulatory research team and is joining us from Washington, D.C. In this webinar, we will explore the comparative analysis of gambling regulations from various jurisdictions worldwide using the Vixio Gambling Compliance Report Builder.
What is the Report Builder?
Vixio is a trusted source of independent and actionable regulatory intelligence for compliance and regulatory strategy professionals in highly regulated industries. The Report Builder helps understand the gambling regulations that differ significantly from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. It allows businesses to make quicker, well-informed decisions regarding compliance and regulatory development.
Methodology and Functionality
The Report Builder allows users to pull information into one unified report from our jurisdictional reports, covering more than 175 jurisdictions worldwide. Our regulatory summaries are categorized under various headings, providing a comprehensive overview of gambling regulations.
Analysis of Gambling Regulations
We performed several analyses using the Report Builder to compare gambling regulations focused on responsible gambling, B2B licensing, and more. Here are some of the key takeaways:
Responsible Gambling Comparison
Through the Report Builder, we examined responsible gambling requirements across different jurisdictions such as the UK, Virginia, and Colombia. The UK leads in the volume of responsible gambling requirements, with strict standards that operators must adhere to. Virginia has recently enforced more robust responsible gambling requirements since legalizing mobile sports betting.
Colombia is witnessing a tightening of responsible gambling provisions, marked by new advertising rules requiring operators to monitor player behavior actively.
Market Entry Comparison
The Report Builder also allows for comparisons concerning licensing costs, advertising restrictions, and taxation rates. Notably, Brazil's market for online gambling presents significant opportunities, projected to reach $ 4.9 billion in size by year five of operations. However, this potential comes with high entry costs, amounting to approximately $ 6.1 million for a license.
In comparing various jurisdictions, the Netherlands has a high tax rate of 30.5%, while Ontario remains competitive at around 20%, providing valuable insights for operators determining their market entry strategies.
B2B Supplier Licensing Trends
The discussion further shifted towards B2B suppliers' increasing regulation globally. Vixio recently introduced Supplier Licensing and Certification Q&As for 45 regulated jurisdictions, reflecting a rise in supplier licensing requirements, especially in the US and Europe.
Conclusion
The Vixio Gambling Compliance Report Builder is a powerful tool to help compliance professionals or those considering market expansions. As the regulatory landscape continues to evolve, it helps ensure operators remain informed and compliant.
