The National Betting Authority, as a member of the European Gaming Regulators Forum (GREF), supports the joint announcement of closer cooperation with the North America Gaming Regulators Association (NAGRA).
The cross-border nature of the gambling sector and the ongoing challenges make it necessary to work with other regulatory bodies around the world on issues related to the protection of players and the increased risk of problem gambling, as well as on eliminating the illegal market.
