OLG’s Under-25 Deposit Limit is Good PR But Has ‘Far Way to Go,’ Says RG Expert

The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) has introduced a new safer gambling policy that mandates online deposit limits for certain players under 25. Dr. Jeffrey Derevensky, a responsible gambling expert, commented that while the move is positive for public relations, it is only a “baby step” and has a “far way to go” in terms of effective harm reduction. The policy applies to OLG’s online gambling platform in Ontario, Canada. Critics argue that more comprehensive measures are needed to address problem gambling among young adults.
