Las apuestas en línea legales se hallan en un "punto clave" en Europa, donde Francia e Italia están a punto de abrir sus mercados.
Las apuestas por Internet que se consideran ilegales, o no están contempladas por las leyes locales, se calculan en alrededor de 3.000 millones de euros dijo Simon Holliday, director de H2 Gambling Capital, la firma de investigación de mercado. Europa experimentará una oleada de fusiones y adquisiciones de casas de apuestas según los países de la región permitan más apuestas por Internet, dice Norbert Teufelberger, uno de los jefes ejecutivos de Bwin. Ello hará que la escala sea esencial, agregó. El mes pasado, Bwin, con sede en Viena, dijo que compraría el operador italiano Gioco Digitale SpA por hasta 50 millones de euros (73,5 millones de dólares) en efectivo y 2,3 millones de acciones de Bwin para aumentar su presencia en el mercado recientemente abierto. "Actualmente, parece que las empresas de primer nivel, compran a las de segundo nivel", indicó Martin Oelbermann, director of Mecn, una consultora con sede en Múnich. "Hay aún un montón de pequeñas compañías. Llegará el día en que hayan desaparecido las pequeñas".
