Fund Index Market Environment UK equities continued to advance, recording a seventh straight monthly gain in August. Sentiment remained buoyant, propelled by a spate of merger and acquisition (M&A) activity, alongside expectations for continued earnings strength. The Bank of England kept its monetary policy unchanged, but warned of a more pronounced period of above-target inflation in the near term. Meanwhile, the pace of economic activity remains solid in the UK despite a modest deceleration over the month. While the flash PMI reading remained above the 50 mark that suggest growth, staffing shortages and supply bottlenecks kept a lid on activity levels. Authorities finally lifted the last of the domestic COVID-19 restrictions during the month. Almost all sectors posted positive returns, with technology, real estate, industrials and consumer discretionary the largest gainers. Conversely, materials and consumer staples lagged the market. Fund Performance The fund delivered 2.0%, while the index was up by 2.7% in August. UK equities continued to advance, and the fund lagged due to its defensive bias.

  • The Stars Group Welcomes Landmark U.S. Supreme Court Ruling Permitting Sports Betting
    The Stars Group Welcomes Landmark U.S. Supreme Court Ruling Permitting Sports Betting Decision opens the door for The Stars Group to expand business broadly in the United States TORONTO, May 15, 2018 /CNW/ - The Stars Group Inc. (NASDAQ: TSG; TSX: TSGI) reacted today to the decision by the United States Supreme Court to strike down, as an unconstitutional exercise of federal power, the nearly 30-year ban on sports betting under the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act, or PASPA. Congress enacted PASPA in 1992, which resulted in all states, other than Nevada and three others, being prohibited from authorizing sports betting. The litigation that reached the Supreme Court arose from New Jersey's repeated attempts to resist the federal ban and to legalize sports betting within the state. "The decision by the Supreme Court is an important step forward in the regulation of sports betting in the United States," said Marlon Goldstein, Executive Vice President and Chief Legal Officer of The Stars Group. "We believe we are well-positioned to take advantage of any new business and market opportunities, and to work with state legislatures in setting up sports betting frameworks that satisfy local consumers' interest in sports betting while protecting them through safe and regulated betting environments." The decision follows The Stars Group's recent announcement of its agreement to acquire Sky Betting & Gaming, the fastest growing established sports betting operator in the United Kingdom, the world's largest online gaming market, and its recent acquisition of 80% of the combined CrownBet and William Hill Australia businesses, which combined form the third largest online sports betting operator in Australia, the world's second largest online gaming market.

    Chapter 10 Introduction to sports betting and wagering 10.1 This chapter provides an introduction to sports betting and wagering in Australia. It will cover definitions and types of bets and wagers; the sporting codes and racing industries involved; the prevalence and recent growth of sports betting, including the effect of online technologies; and sports wagering providers, including corporate operators, traditional bookmakers, totalisators and betting exchanges. It will also discuss how sports betting and wagering is excluded from the Commonwealth Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (IGA) with the exception of 'in-play' betting online. The chapter will conclude with a summary of state and territory regulation of gambling services. Introduction 10.2 Sports betting, where individuals bet on the outcome of a sporting event or individual events within the context of a match, has become increasingly popular.1 The fast growth in sports betting activity in recent years, combined with the pervasive advertising of sports betting products and services during sporting broadcasts, has resulted in what some describe as the 'gamblification' of sports.2 It has also raised particular concerns this will contribute to problem gambling.3 Definitions 10.3 Sports betting can be defined as: ...the wagering on approved types of local, national or international sporting activities (other than the established forms of horse and greyhound racing), whether on or off-course, in person, by telephone, or via the internet'.4 1 The betting options available to online sports betting customers are numerous.
