Philippines gross gaming revenues hit record Php285.27 billion in 2023
The Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR) has announced that the country's gross gaming revenues (GGR) in 2023 reached a record PHP 285.27 billion, surpassing pre-pandemic levels. This new GGR record is 11.22% higher than the previous high of PHP 256.49 billion set in 2019 before the COVID-19 pandemic.
PAGCOR Chairman and CEO Alejandro H. Tengco stated that the results exceeded optimistic projections, indicating a full recovery for the Philippine gaming industry. The achievement makes the 2024 GGR projection of PHP 336.38 billion more achievable, especially with the opening of new integrated resorts in the coming year. Integrated resorts remain the biggest contributors to the industry's revenue, followed by the Electronic Games sector.
PAGCOR-operated casinos under the Casino Filipino brand also made significant contributions. The E-Games sector, comprising e-casinos, e-bingo, sports betting, and specialty games, is projected to be the fastest-growing sector in the coming years.

Crypto firms to face stricter AML rules under new EU framework
The European Union is set to introduce stricter anti-money laundering (AML) rules for cryptocurrency firms under a new framework.
The regulations will mandate enhanced due diligence for crypto-asset service providers (CASPs) and impose measures for transactions involving high-risk third countries and luxury goods traders. Member states' Financial Intelligence Units will gain new powers for immediate access to financial, administrative, and law enforcement records, including tax data and information on frozen funds.
The framework also aims to ban cash transactions exceeding β¬10,000 and introduce transparency rules on beneficial ownership. CASPs will be classified as "obliged entities," requiring them to conduct due diligence on customers, including know-your-customer practices for transactions over β¬1,000.
The framework will undergo approval processes before being officially adopted.

The development of AI technologies continues to amaze. But their use may not always be for the better. Dmitry Smirnov, a lawyer at EvenBet Gaming, shares his commentary on the impact of these processes on the KYC system:
The rise of advanced AI technologies like Sora presents new challenges for KYC regulations in the iGaming industry. As AI-generated videos become harder to tell apart from real ones, conventional biometric identification methods are being questioned.
To address this, the industry should focus on improving biometric authentication by incorporating more factors than just facial recognition, such as voice or behavioural biometrics recognition. Security measures can be strengthened by using robust liveness detection techniques, such as challenge-response tests or dynamic facial movements, to tell the difference between real people and AI-generated videos.
Additional security measures might be achieved by exploring blockchain technology that provides tamper-proof records and decentralised authentication, reducing the chances of fraud. Finally, AI-driven detection systems specifically designed to identify and flag AI-generated videos or deepfakes can continuously analyse and adapt to evolving techniques used in generating deceptive content, providing a proactive defence against fraudulent attempts.
By embracing these strategies, the industry can navigate the evolving landscape of AI technologies while upholding KYC integrity.

The Indian government will take on the role of regulating the online gaming industry
According to IT rules, online real money games must be approved by a regulatory body, while those without monetary involvement do not need such approval. The government will regulate the online gaming sector directly, as opposed to through a self-regulatory organization (SRO).
The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) will develop a framework for certifying money-involved online games. Initially, MeitY had proposed SROs but found them to be industry-dominated, prompting rejection. Without a neutral SRO, government regulation remains in place. The framework under development by the government is yet to be detailed.
Expected SROs would include diverse expertise beyond gaming, but submitted proposals failed to meet requirements. A group of ministers has been formed to discuss regulatory frameworks, but clarity may only emerge post-general elections.
Companies and industry associations seek guidance on responsible gaming, player protection, and other aspects, advocating for a regulatory structure similar to Sebi.

UK parliament sees heated debate on affordability checks for online gambling
During a lively debate in the UK Parliament, Philip Davies MP vehemently criticized the Gambling Commission's proposed financial risk checks for online gambling, labeling them as "completely unacceptable." Davies, a former chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Betting and Gaming, expressed deep concerns about punter autonomy and the potential adverse effects on the horse racing industry, a cornerstone of British sports.
In his impassioned speech, Davies stressed the importance of considering the perspectives of punters, who often find themselves caught in the crossfire between the betting industry and anti-gambling campaigners. He staunchly opposed the notion of allowing government bodies and bookmakers to unilaterally determine punters' spending limits without their input.
Responding to Davies, Carolyn Harris MP underscored the paramount importance of safeguarding vulnerable individuals from the harmful effects of gambling addiction. While acknowledging her fondness for the racetrack and bingo halls, Harris emphasized the need to prioritize consumer protection. She argued that implementing financial risk checks is a responsible measure aimed at preventing harm and promoting responsible gambling behavior.
Despite the spirited debate, it is unlikely to sway government policy. The Gambling Commission plans to proceed with a pilot program for enhanced financial risk assessments, which will involve collaborating with credit reference agencies and select gambling operators. Meanwhile, the Department for Culture, Media & Sport (DCMS) revealed projections indicating a potential decrease in gross gambling yield due to forthcoming maximum stake limits for online slots.
