Mexican online gambling regulators have urged the country’s government to overhaul archaic gambling laws in time for a boom in gambling activity during next year’s football World Cup.
The tournament will be jointly hosted by 16 cities in North America, with the US as the main host alongside Canada and Mexico. It will be the first time it has been hosted by three nations.
Earlier this month, AIEJA, Mexico’s Association of Permit Holders, Operators and Suppliers of the Entertainment and Gambling Industry, urged the government of Mexico to update the country’s Federal Gaming and Lottery Law of 1947.
