A court has rejected an appeal from the Daub Alderney online-focused subsidiary of the Rank Group against a £5.8m ($7.2m) fine handed down by the Great Britain Gambling Commission last year.
Issued in September 2021, the Daub Alderney fine was in relation to a host of social responsibility and anti-money laundering shortcomings uncovered by the Commission during an investigation covering the period between January 2019 and March 2020.
The Commission said Daub Alderney did not have appropriate measures in place to detect or prevent problem gambling in a series of incidents that occurred between these dates.
Daub Alderney appealed to the First-Tier Tribunal on the grounds that the financial penalty was excessive, unfair and disproportionate.
