OPAP plans to challenge unfair Hellenic Gambling Commission fine

Recent allegations of competition law violations against Greek gambling operator OPAP resulted in a €24.5 million fine. The business, however, intends to appeal the decision because it considers it to be unfair.

The operator was penalized by Greece's gambling watchdog, the Hellenic Gaming Commission, for allegedly breaking the law regarding competition. Smaller Greek gambling companies have complained that OPAP has unfairly priced products, sanctioned transactions unfairly, and restricted the availability of equipment.

Competition in gambling is important to give players and small businesses options. At the same time, leading companies also deserve protection from baseless accusations. The appeal process exists for a reason so let's see what comes out before judging fully. Fairness and consideration for all sides is best for sustainable growth of the sector in Greece.
