The UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) stands by its assessment that analysing operator data is the best way to fill knowledge gaps, governing the UK gambling sector.

The assessment was made by Ben Haden, the Commission’s Programme Director of Insights and Engagement, referencing data and intelligence developments undertaken in the past year.

Haden cited: “Operator data is a rich resource in terms of ensuring how we understand how the market is developing, appreciate how interventions we make are (or aren’t) having an impact and at a fundamental level ensure we charge the right fees and can forecast and manage income and finances.”
