Abstract
The Swiss legalized casino gambling in 2000, leading to strict regulations. In 2019, the Federal Gambling Act (FGA) was expanded to cover online gambling. Self-exclusion programs are valuable tools for mitigating the harms of gambling, but there are still significant gaps in understanding why people self-exclude and how effective it is. Research shows growth in online and illegal gambling, showing gaps in protecting players, especially vulnerable demographics. This emphasizes the need for cross-border collaborations, advanced harm-reduction tools, and stronger enforcement.
