The report assesses black market activity across 28 European jurisdictions, including the UK, Netherlands and Germany. According to estimates across a mature black market ecosystem, 25 operators account for approximately 64% of relevant black market traffic.
Thanks to the “rapid growth of crypto currencies” and globally recognisable branding through marketing and sponsorships, this handful of operators are generating the majority of illegal gambling traffic across Europe.
The report also cites brands targeting a specifically banned vertical or product within a jurisdiction as driving black market activity. While markets across Europe have many examples, one such flagged in the report is that iGaming remains illegal for licensed operators in France.

How has the conversation moved on from ‘Are we doing DEI?’, to ‘Is it improving our business, our culture and our ability to attract and retain great people?'” Mark Skinner, chief people officer at Allwyn Digital, asks.
He believes the conversation has matured and gambling companies are now expected to deliver measurable outcomes.
