The Anti-Money Laundering Operational Manual for Gaming will be published in March. It was born out of a collaboration between the Italian Anti-Money Laundering School, Sisal and Betpoint, which already led to the creation of a Executive Master Anti-Money Laundering Specialized Gaming, the only course in Italy in this sector.

As a further step in our partnership with the two companies, this year, based on an idea by Joseph Malvisini, our School has decided to contribute to the interpretation of anti-money laundering regulations as they apply to the gaming sector by making its organization and the expertise of its Faculty available to develop an Anti-Money Laundering Operations Manual for Gaming.

The gaming sector is easily associated with money laundering. In the Operations Manual, Malvisini explores the reasons for this connection, and topics such as anti-money laundering and due diligence, while Massimo Ferracci examines beneficial ownership and the evolution of legislation, starting with the recommendations of the Financial Action Task Force. 231/01 crimes in the gaming sector, match fixing, and the unauthorized conduct of gaming activities are the subject of Marcello Presilla's reflection, while Gianluca Tannoia's contribution focuses on online gaming, which has seen growth of over 45 percent in the last year and benefits from technological advancements.

Finally, the book offers an analysis of the sanctions system by Salvatore Maione.

The volume will not be for sale but will be distributed free of charge to operators in the sector who request it through this website. form.
