We’re heading to the Balkans in today’s episode of iGaming Daily, supported by Optimove, with Bulgaria witnessing proposals to tighten its gambling regulations in the past month. 

In April, a new bill to amend the country’s Gambling Act was proposed by Bulgaria’s biggest political party GERB, alongside the Movement for Rights and Freedoms party. 

The amendments, if approved by the National Assembly, will see a ban on gambling advertisements throughout TV, radio, print and online, as well as all kinds of promotional places on public buildings. 

And this will be the topic on today’s episode of iGaming Daily, James Ross is joined by Viktor Kayed, Senior Journalist at SBC News and a native Bulgarian!
