To conclude: Dying? – Never, but structural change and adaption seem necessary. • Aging target group and the perception of the new consumer? • The transaction – adaption to AML compliance – too little, too slow? • Cross border operation need further transparency and overall due diligence. • Improvement of gamblers security. • Lag of technology. • Product development and fresh look on revenue models.
