For instance, one firm neglected to conduct supplementary checks on its patrons, despite their origin in high-risk nations and the placement of substantial wagers with unfavorable odds.<\/p>\n<p>Another entity possessed a robust anti-money laundering strategy, yet failed to implement it consistently. For example, they omitted verification of players exceeding \u20ac2,000 in expenditures.<\/p>\n<p>The FIAU has also compiled a list of the most prevalent breaches of anti-money laundering regulations, encompassing the gambling sector.<\/p>\n<p>The most frequent transgression was the inadequate assessment of customer risk, occurring in 11.6% of instances. The second most common error was the omission of verification for individuals holding prominent government positions, occurring in 7.6% of cases. However, the FIAU refrained from disclosing the proportion of these errors linked to gambling. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Maltese Financial Intelligence Analysis Unit (FIAU) has cautioned that an excessive number of remote gaming operators are accumulating &#8220;useless&#8221;
