Spain’s Directorate General for the Regulation of Gambling has confirmed that the country has signed an agreement with the regulators of France, Italy and Portugal that will enable the sharing of online poker liquidity across the four nations.
The agreement was signed on Thursday, July 6, in Rome, Italy, and seeks to improve co-operation and information exchange between the authorities to enable liquidity sharing between licensed online poker operators.
In a statement, the Spanish regulator said the move would help in “fighting the illegal market and fraud, guaranteeing player protection and the respect of the anti-money laundering prescriptions.”
The authorities hope to see the agreement implemented by the end of the year.
