After a little over six months of operations, Brazil is more than living up to its billing as a uniquely complex and volatile market for online gambling.
When Brazil’s licensing system for fixed-odds betting debuted on January 1, observers were expecting the first few months of the new regime to be challenging due to a series of unique compliance requirements, unresolved policy questions, and the media and political blowback against online betting that had already caused heartburn in the run-up to the launch of the regulated market.
Few anticipated that the newly licensed industry would face the risk of a regulatory reset quite so soon after more than 70 operators each forked out R$30m (US$5.5m) for licences that netted Brazil’s federal government more than R$2bn (US$370m) in upfront fees.
