L’Autorité Nationale des Jeux (ANJ), France’s gambling regulator, has noted “little significant progress” in operators’ action plans to prevent problem gambling, ultimately rejecting six of them.
ANJ examined action plans presented by 235 racetracks, 203 casinos and seven gaming clubs. Six plans were rejected, belonging to five casinos and a gaming club.
Under a legal order imposed on 2 October 2019, all operators in France are mandated to submit action plans to operators, detailing agendas to fight against fraud, money laundering, terrorist financing and for safer gambling initiatives.
For casinos and gaming clubs, ANJ said that most of the action plans had been approved – but reiterated the requirements it set out for 2022.
