Ep 510: Big Business In Little Stoke: Is Bet365 Ready To Cash Out?

On today's episode of iGaming Daily, sponsored by Optimove, our European team are discussing the biggest player in the game, Bet365.

Viktor Kayed is once again in the host's chair, and he's once again between two Teds. Ted Menmuir, Editor-at-large, and Ted Orme-Claye, SBC News Editor, as they discuss the speculation around a potential sale of Bet365.

Reported by the The Guardian last week, the rumours suggested the Coates family were exploring a sale of the business valued at £9 billion, and a potential move to Wall Street. Vik, Ted and Ted express their surprise at the story, but emphasise the report is highly speculative in nature. They also explore potential reasons for considering a sale, strategic moved made recently to enhance investor appeal, their exit from the Chinese market, the impact on the British Stock Exchange, and the impact on the North American market.
