SkillOnNet Faces Penalties in Denmark for Money Laundering Breaches

SkillOnNet, an online casino operator and platform, has been issued three injunctions and two additional charges by Spillemyndigheden, the Danish regulatory authority, for violations of the country's anti-money laundering laws. The charges stem from the company's failure to adequately document completed audits, establish internal control procedures, and conduct risk assessments.

Under the terms of the injunctions, SkillOnNet is required to submit revised assessments and outlines of business processes within a two-month timeframe, while also providing documentation of internal control reviews. The severity of the breaches has led to two prosecutions by the Danish regulator.

Responding to the allegations, SkillOnNet management expressed surprise at Spillemyndigheden's decision, characterizing it as a misunderstanding. The company emphasized its commitment to maintaining high standards of compliance with anti-money laundering regulations, both in Denmark and in other jurisdictions where it operates.
