Betsmart Consulting and Gambling Integrity deliver lifesaving support for operators and PML holders
PML Holders and leadership teams working within the gambling industry can collectively take a deep breath and expel a long sigh of relief, knowing that renowned compliance and governance experts Betsmart Consulting and Gambling Integrity have teamed up to provide the ultimate training and advisory support for these under pressure yet underserved individuals. Currently this support package is being fine-tuned with leading Bingo operator, Buzz Bingo, and the Betsmart / Gambling Integrity team are very much looking forward to receiving valuable feedback.
Kirsty, Founder and CEO of Betsmart Consulting, is one of the leading regulatory compliance voices, with almost 20 years’ operational experience and knowledge working with the biggest gambling companies in the world and was recently appointed as one of the Gambling Commission Industry Forum members. Malcolm, Founder of Gambling Integrity, has one of the greatest gambling governance legacies in the industry. From having advised the Gambling Commission on the implementation of the 2005 gambling act and to the Dutch government over the player protection measures needed for the remote gambling act, to working with senior teams and boards of many of the world’s leading gambling companies on how to reduce risk, enhance compliance and attain consumer and regulator confidence.
High stakes – no rewards?
No other role in our industry assumes more pressure, responsibility and personal liability than a Personal Management Licence holder. From strategy to financial planning, regulatory compliance and everything in between – the PML holder is the person who answers for systemic failures and legacy issues in organisations, and depending on the findings can be sanctioned by the Commission.
“Based on our experiences with clients and witnessing in the media what’s happening to PML holders across the industry, we understood that we had to do something to support them not only stay on the right side of the law and prevent sanctions, but to support them safeguard their own reputations and that of the companies they worked for. It’s not enough to make the right decisions, PML holders must influence their teams to make the right decisions in every corner of the business, and that’s exactly what we’ll do.” Malcolm Bruce, Founder Gambling Integrity
“By bringing the appropriate frameworks and tools together and opening everyone’s eyes to new ways of thinking by using a variety of methods including behavioural insights and case studies, we can help equip PML holders with individually tailored tools for them and their organisations. Very few PML holders have been given the support they need to make the most suitable and future proof decisions, or don’t necessarily have the benefit of previous experience for that situation or aren’t given a safe space to talk through the ‘ifs’, ‘ands’ and ‘buts’ of the very particular set of circumstances they will experience. Malcolm and I have compiled the PML Support Package so there’s plenty of room for individual circumstances and will give them every tool and process they’ll need for their journey as a successful license holder. This really is a lifesaver for PML holders.” Kirsty Caldwell, CEO and Founder, Betsmart Consulting.
Be first past the regulatory post
As stated, this PML Support Package is being fine-tuned with Buzz Bingo, and the team look forward to receiving feedback and implementing any necessary tweaks. Once finalised the full details of the package will be released.
