Little change to Flutter shares after rival William Hill fined £19m by gambling regulator

An 888 spokesperson said the settlement related to a period before it acquired William Hill.

Shares in Paddy Power owner Flutter and Entain’s Ladbrokes were largely unchanged after its rival 888’s William Hill was slapped with a £19m (€21.5m) fine by the UK gambling regulator in a bid to crack down on failures in the industry.

The fine is the largest enforcement payment ever imposed by the regulator, yet it did not send shockwaves through the industry.
