Lawyer Stefano Sbordoni, in his speech at the panel “New rules for online gaming and new opportunities for payment services” of the event “The reform of online gaming and payment systems: between challenges and opportunities” organized by Okto in collaboration with Gioconews.it, remarked that “The Executive has produced new rules for remote gaming and has defined the limits within which operators will be able to act”. For the well-known Roman lawyer, “The Customs and monopolies is taking care of all the rules of compatibility with existing Italian and European regulations, as well as talking to operators to facilitate the transition from the old to the new market, which will be a very important challenge and the main one is that of payment systems which will be crucial for the development of the market”. and on the other gaming. The former will be an instrument of the latter. Then we talk about security and also about the contiguity but about the separation of the verticals themselves.” For Sbordoni, in conclusion, “Payment systems are one thing, their entry into one network and another is another. And we need to understand well where and how they can be used and what critical issues will have to be resolved.”
