The boss of gambling tech provider Playtech slammed highly valued rivals listed outside of London, accusing them of doing business in “black markets”.
Mor Weizer told the Standard it was “frustrating” to be compared to listed firms that have seen a boom in their revenues and share price, but do business in countries where online gambling is illegal.
“Other suppliers are very significant in grey markets or black markets,” he said. “It is less helpful when they operate in black markets and use that money to penetrate regulated markets. We know some that operate in sanctioned markets, countries on the US sanctions list.”
