Charles Coppolani, the former president of France’s Gaming Observatory will now serve as the freshly-minted director for ARJEL, France’s Gambling regulator.
According to a provided statement from ARJEL, the new direct is not only capable of handling this new responsibility, he is also “conscious of the absolute need to protect players from the risks of addiction which are particularly acute to online gaming and anxious to offer operators that choose to be licensed optimal economic conditions, he will work towards finding the best balance possible between these two aims during his mandate.”
Today in France, the online gambling industry continues to struggle just as many players purportedly struggle with addiction to online gambling.
According to reports out of Europe, Coppolani certainly has his work cut out for him. ARJEL, however, added that Coppolani has “a good knowledge of the issues related to real money gaming and strong experience in public, accountancy and budgetary management.”
