Jake Pollard reports on a newly-launched algorithm designed by the Autorité Nationale des Jeux (ANJ) to identify at risk and problem gamblers is going to increase the pressure on French operators to monitor and document the number of excessive or pathological gamblers among their client base.
The algorithm, the first of its kind in Europe, will require operators to step up their efforts in identifying and assisting individuals with gambling issues. By mandating the monitoring and reporting of problematic gambling behavior, the ANJ aims to enhance player protection measures in the French market.
Operators in France are expected to adapt their responsible gaming strategies to comply with the new algorithm, which is part of the ANJ's broader initiatives to promote safer gambling practices and reduce the prevalence of harmful behaviors within the industry.
