Maxima Compliance opens office in the Netherlands
Office is a joint venture with local business consulting firm Gran Via BV
Leading full service regulatory and technical compliance provider for the betting and gaming industry Maxima Compliance has opened an office in the Netherlands dedicated to meeting the discreet needs of the growing online gaming sector in the country.
Services provided at the office include a quality management system review and support, change management support, technical and regulatory compliance support and Maxima DataVault, a platform developed by Maxima Compliance, which is capable of receiving data from operators and game providers saving it in the correct format required by local regulators in multiple jurisdictions.
The office is launched as a joint venture with Gran Via BV, a business consulting firm with in-depth knowledge of the Dutch market.
Antonio Zanghi, CEO of Maxima Compliance, said: “It’s become clear in the short few months since regulated online gaming launched in the Netherlands that only those with a strong handle on compliance requirements will succeed in this exciting new market.
“Maxima Compliance’s Dutch office means we can now provide bespoke and local expertise to operators and suppliers in the Netherlands.”
Tom de Bruijn, co-founder of Gran Via BV, added: “Since the Netherlands finally launched its regulated online gaming framework last year, the market is quickly developing into one of the most important in Europe.
“Gaming businesses are learning that a deep understanding of local conditions and requirements, particularly when it comes to compliance, is essential. That’s why we are thrilled to be working alongside the best in the business, Maxima Compliance.”
To further demonstrate its long-term commitment to the fast-growing Dutch market, Maxima Compliance will also partner with leading Dutch B2B igaming community and events company Gaming in Holland from 2022.
Willem van Oort, founder of Gaming in Holland, said: “I am very happy to welcome Maxima Compliance to the Netherlands-focused igaming community. In order to operate successfully in the highly-regulated Dutch market, technical compliance is of paramount importance. This holds true not only for licensed operators, but also for related B2B service providers.”
The Netherlands launched regulated online gaming in October 2021, with the Dutch 2021 GGR at an estimated €814m.
