- The persons who shall shoulder responsibility in the absence of duly appointed key function holders;

- The applicability of suspicious betting reporting requirements.
Effective on 20th of October 2021, new licence applicants must inform the authority of the identity of persons at the company who hold the role of CEO, compliance executive and AML executive, at the time of the application’s submission. Then, within a time frame of six months since the license has been granted, applicants must name the remaining of their ‘key function’ holders.
