GDPR - THE GENERAL DATA PROTECTION REGULATION

GDPR is set to become enforceable in May 2018, and will overhaul the way online gaming companies collect, use and process data. Users will now have more power over their own personal data meaning companies will be held accountable for the data they store.

FOURTH EU DIRECTIVE ON MONEY LAUNDERING

As the most sweeping AML legislation in Europe in years, the 4th Money Laundering Directive introduces new strengthened obligations and an extended framework, which significantly affects the procedures associated with anti-money laundering processes in the iGaming industry.

The October conference follows on from a successful event hosted in Malta in June 2017, with companies from across the gaming spectrum in attendance. Delegates learned how to put a compliance plan into action.

Compliance Briefing: London will once again showcase a wealth of top industry names and expert speakers, who will be providing a framework for compliance tailored online gaming businesses. The new directives will offer a complex set of challenges, and the conference aims to break these down and guide attendees effectively through the hurdles.

Recent research has shown that many organisations have not put the necessary time or resources into regulatory compliance, leaving them at significant risk of penalties, fines and reputational damage.
