iGaming Daily Ep 734: EU Gambling Levy and Colombia Deposit Tax: What Operators Need to Know
In today's episode of iGaming Daily SBC Media, Manager Fernando Noodt is joined by SBC Editor-at-Large Ted Menmuir and SBC Noticias Editor Lucia Gando as the trio discuss the latest developments in gambling taxation, including the proposed EU levy and Colombia's new player deposit tax, and what these changes could mean for operators and regulated markets worldwide.
Tune in to today's episode to find out:
- What the proposed EU gambling levy is trying to achieve and how significant a 1 percent levy could be for operators when combined with national taxes
- How seriously executives should take the European Commission’s feasibility assessment at this stage
- Whether the EU could expand its involvement in gambling policy beyond taxation
- How Colombia’s new deposit tax might affect player behaviour and operational requirements for operators
- Whether increased taxation in both regions risks harming regulated markets rather than supporting them
