The Swedish Gaming Board, called in their own language the Lotteriinspektionen, has requested UK-based betting exchange RedBet Ltd to send information on its employees.
Apparantly they think Redbet has emplyees based in Sweden : ” This private information has been requested in an attempt to ascertain whether Redbet has too many employees based in Sweden, a country which allows only government-owned gaming operations.”
The power to demand usually private information from online gambling companies is based on Swedish laws that permit the Board to require information if it is of the opinion that a commercial entity is carrying on an illegal gambling business in the country. Such information may be required to enable the Board to establish whether significant business for the company is being conducted without authority on Swedish soil.
