Betting on Compliance: Navigating Gambling Regulations with Confidence
by NGA
The gambling industry faces growing scrutiny as regulatory bodies impose increasingly stringent requirements, particularly in the area of Anti-Money Laundering (AML) compliance. Many gambling organizations have implemented basic measures to tick the compliance boxes, but these systems often lack the robustness and up-to-date external data needed to pass an in-depth audit. This gap leaves operators vulnerable to regulatory penalties and reputational damage.
The Compliance Challenge:
What we’ve observed in the gambling sector is that many organizations rely on outdated systems or incomplete data to manage AML compliance. While these setups may appear sufficient at a surface level, they often fail to meet the rigorous standards of a comprehensive audit. Key issues include:
- Insufficient External Data: Many systems lack access to global adverse media, sanctions lists, and Politically Exposed Persons (PEP) databases, leaving significant gaps in due diligence.
- Inefficient Risk Monitoring: Outdated workflows and manual processes hinder real-time risk assessment and reporting.
- Inadequate Automation: A lack of intelligent automation increases the likelihood of errors and delays in compliance checks.
