An EU investigation into the US ban on online gambling - whether it is protectionist and breaches World Trade Organization agreements - has been completed. The report finds that European businesses are discriminated against be the American government's ban.

The Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act - or UIGEA - would escape criticism and be legal had it not allowed local websites to offer online gambling, namely horse racing bets. But as it stands, allowing some and banning the rest goes against international trade agreements, the report claims.
