Picture As Pdf 1 Cultural Daily Independent Voices, New Perspectives Why you should give preference to online casino for gambling in Norway Our Friends · Wednesday, February 24th, 2021 What is that one thing that you love about the internet? Is it the ease of access to information or the presence of entertainment options such as online games and streaming services? Everything is happening online, from shopping, learning to payment of taxes. It’s no surprise that most of the physical facilities providing various services over the years are closing down. Some are shifting to meet the rapidly rising demand in the online segment. But why is the focus on online casino gambling becoming a trend? Many innovations are taking place, leading to shifts in various industries. We linked up with our expert Alexandra Nereng who helped us answer some of the burning questions that many people have today. Are online casinos beneficial in any way? Here are some aspects of playing online casinos in Norway that will make you yearn for more playtime. They make the majority of the players prefer online casino games to other methods. A wide selection of games Have you ever asked yourself what it takes to offer all the games you dream about in a land-based casino? You will require thousands of acres of land and thousands of machines. The top reason why many people in Norway prefer online betting over land- based casinos is the variety of games available in the former. The online platform only needs a site that can host multiple games. It is thus cheaper to start an online casino than a physical one. When you go to a Norway land-based casino, you won’t find all the fantastic games you are looking for. However, online casinos have a variety of casino games that will excite you whether you are playing alone or with friends. Besides, there are many websites that you can always check games on in case you don’t find your favourite game on one of the sites. Cultural Daily - 1 / 3 - 24.08.2021 2 24-7 Availability Online casinos guarantee the players’ reliability and convenience compared to the physical casinos in Norway. You don’t have to move from where you are if you have suitable gaming devices. The casino Norway allows you to choose your favourite game and play for an unlimited time provided you are ready. You can either decide to play such games through mobile apps or your PC. Furthermore, there are no holidays that a player must wait to play. Norway online casinos are available throughout the year, unlike the physical casinos that are closed times for the holidays or other reasons such as maintenance. Fast payouts and transactions Inconvenience when making transactions make the majority of the players bored and stop playing. But with online casinos, transactions are easier and fast because the sites allow for a variety of transactional modes. Furthermore, all the methods are secure, making it a significant preference in Norway over the physical casinos. Additionally, when making withdrawals, they are fast because there are no obstacles unless you have network issues. Many freebies and bonuses Freebies and bonuses play a vital marketing role for online casino norsk. They help to attract new online casino players in Norway and keep the existing ones. There is stiff competition in the casino industry. The bonuses allow the players to explore various games on the site. New players don’t have challenges when they sign up to the sites because they have access to a fantastic bonus that allows them to try their luck. It also enables them to save on their budget before they start real money gaming. Privacy Privacy is a critical issue that deserves attention every time. However, you attract unnecessary attention when you win big in a physical casino. Fortunately, online casinos treat the issue of privacy with the weight it deserves. That’s because there is an exchange of users’ data daily online. That compels the casino sites to integrate some of the best data encryption systems that prevent data leakage. Without proper data protection mechanisms, cybercriminals will take advantage of the users’ data. Such crooks are all over the internet to my data. Sadly, most of them are in the online casino sector because they believe that they get most of the information they need. However, physical casinos do not have better mechanisms for protecting their customers. The above shows you why giving online gambling should be a thing for you. Wasting Cultural Daily - 2 / 3 - 24.08.2021 3 time moving from one casino to the next should be a thing of the past now.

  • Responsible Gambling and the Communication to Customers Through Casino Websites
    Responsible Gambling and the Communication to Customers through Casino Websites Bachelor Thesis for Obtaining the Degree Bachelor of Science International Management Submitted to Ph.D. Ivo Ponocny Alexander Ullmann 1311046 Vienna, 15th February 2019 Affidavit I hereby affirm that this Bachelor’s Thesis represents my own written work and that I have used no sources and aids other than those indicated. All passages quoted from publications or paraphrased from these sources are properly cited and attributed. The thesis was not submitted in the same or in a substantially similar version, not even partially, to another examination board and was not published elsewhere. 15th February 2019 Date Signature 2 Abstract The gambling industry is growing at a fast pace due to the proliferation of internet and digital media. Both online and offline gambling businesses are becoming recognized more and more around the globe. However, gambling brings the dilemma of social, political and financial problems at the individual as well as the collective level. This research study seeks methods of preventing the gamblers from social and economic destructive effects by controlling the gaming attitude. 52 websites referring to casino companies operating in North America and Europe were analyzed using a qualitative approach. The analysis included various strategies used by the companies regarding the incorporation of responsible behavior of gambling in promotion and marketing. Results show that the responsibility in gambling behavior could be induced through raising awareness of the consequences when the addiction to gambling takes over the control of individuals. Instead of playing with their patrons’ imagination by promising fun and large sums of money, casinos should communicate in a more serious manner by promoting ways to minimize the addiction.

Although definitions of gambling as a sinful activity or even as a crime are now things of the past, the contemporary debate on whether gamblinkö-g is actually a social problem, an individual problem, a socially beneficial activity or perhaps just another form of consumption has been heated. This study maintains that no such conclusive definition of the social role of gambling can be found because societies discuss gambling differently based on contextual conditions. The research question asks whether the understandings of gambling differ between two European societies, Finland and France, and if so, how these differences are manifested. To answer this question a comparative study has been conducted.

Natvik MPC heterogeneity and household balance sheets Discussion Papers No. 852, November 2016 Statistics Norway, Research Department Andreas Fagereng, Martin B. Holm and Gisle J. Natvik MPC heterogeneity and household balance sheets Abstract: Using Norwegian administrative data, we study how sizable lottery prizes affect household expenditure and savings. Expenditure responses (MPCs) spike in the year of winning, with a mean estimate of 0.35, and thereafter fall markedly. Controlling for all items on the household balance sheet and characteristics such as education and age, MPCs vary with the amount won and liquid assets only. Shock size matters: The MPC among the 25 percent winning least is twice as high as among the 25 percent winning most. Many households are wealthy, illiquid and have high MPCs, consistent with 2-asset models of consumer choice. Keywords: D12, D14, D91, E21 JEL classification: marginal propensity to consume, household expenditure response, household heterogeneity, income shocks Acknowledgements: We thank Mario Alloza, Adrien Auclert, Paco Buera, Thomas Crossley, Nicola Fuchs-Schündeln, Ragnar Juelsrud, Davide Malacrino, Ben Moll, Luigi Pistaferri, Terje Skjerpen, Kjetil Storesletten, Nate Vellekoop and Gianluca Violante, as well as participants at seminars, workshops and conferences, for helpful discussions and suggestions.

  • Gambling Treatment in Norway
    Gambling Treatment in Norway Innovation, Health Services and the Voluntary sector Siam Florelius Master thesis at TIK - Centre for Technology, Innovation and Culture UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Date: 5.10.2015 I II Gambling Treatment in Norway - Innovation, Health Services and the Voluntary Sector III © Siam Florelius 2015 Gambling treatment in Norway – Innovation, Health Service and the Voluntary Sector Siam Florelius http://www.duo.uio.no Print: Allkopi, Oslo IV V Abstract The purpose of this paper is to examine innovation in voluntary organisations in Norway. Voluntary organisations can be key players in the future society with the increased pressure on the public sector, making public sector more dependent on other actors to deliver public services on their behalf. Voluntary organisations may not only deliver public services, but also create new solutions and third sector organisations are thought to be more flexible and capable to innovate. This research is a case study of Blå Kors, a renowned voluntary organisation in Norway, and the development of a treatment service for gambling addiction in the early 2000s. The paper seeks to examine what challenges and opportunities were involved in the development of the innovation and how this coincides with international literature on the field of innovation and voluntary organisations. The case study set out to see what form of relationships or networks between public and third sector actors surrounded the innovation process, and the organisational environment internally in the organisation at the time. VI VII Acknowledgements I must start out by thanking my main-supervisor Thomas Hoholm. His guest lecture in the fall of 2014 was one the reasons for my interest in innovative processes.
