(Brussels).- The European Gaming and Betting Association (EGBA) has completed its second yearly review of adherence to its continent-wide Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Guidelines, reflecting a continued commitment to enhancing AML standards within Europe’s online gaming industry.

The guidelines, published in March 2023, provide practical, sector-specific guidance for online gambling operators on conducting customer and business risk assessments, customer due diligence processes, suspicious transaction reporting, and record keeping. The guidelines apply a risk-based approach aligned with EU and FATF standards and address the unique specificities of online gambling that AML regulators may be less familiar with.
“We’re pleased to have completed the second annual reporting process and want to thank our members for their dedication to this collaborative initiative,” said Dr. Ekaterina Hartmann, Director of Legal and Regulatory Affairs at EGBA.
“Together, we’re aiming to raise the bar for AML compliance standards across our members and, by example, influence other operators across the industry to do the same. We encourage operators who aren’t members of EGBA to join this initiative and help strengthen the sector’s contribution to the fight against financial crime.”
The annual reporting process is part of EGBA’s ongoing efforts to ensure the guidelines remain effective and comprehensive, helping to identify areas where updates may be needed to address emerging challenges and ensure the guidelines continue to set the industry standard for AML compliance across Europe.
Based on the feedback from the reporting process, EGBA will consider amending sections of the guidelines to incorporate a minimum list of documents for AML purposes and enhanced guidance on risk assessments, payments, outsourcing, and sports integrity.
The guidelines will be updated in 2026 to align with the rules of the new EU Anti-Money Laundering Regulation. Non-member operators can participate in the guidelines process, with one company already involved. EGBA invites additional operators to join this important initiative.
