The GB Gambling Commision’s executive director Tim Miller has highlighted the danger internationalisation poses to regulators within the gaming industry.

Speaking at the International Association of Gaming Regulators (IAGR) conference, Miller spoke of how the worldwide growth of the gambling industry “heightens old challenges and brings with it new risks as well”.

One issue highlighted by Miller was the growth of the industry happening at a faster rate than regulators can handle. He cited the UK market as an example whereby gambling is a £14.1bn industry by Gross Gaming Revenue (GGR), whereas the regulator’s budget stands at £18m per year.
