Victor Chandler : ウィキペディア英語版 | Victor Chandler Victor Chandler (born 18 April 1951) is a British businessman, and former chairman of the company BetVictor, legally Victor Chandler International.〔http://midas.picdar.co.uk/cgi-bin/RP?MatchIndex=1&urn=718521033&Random=1288392024&FFAC=WM0000022791&searchid=2〕 == Off-shore bookmaking == Victor Chandler is often credited as the first bookmaker to recognise the importance of online gambling, as well as being the first to move his gaming business offshore. In the early 1990s, Victor began to accept football wagers from far-eastern clients and, in doing so, he recognised the potential growth in foreign markets. He opened up an office in Antigua to enable these clients to bet without the need to pay UK tax. In the UK, punters were required to pay a 9% betting tax but, in 1996, Chandler obtained a betting licence in Gibraltar and in 1999 moved his entire business there. Over the next decade the company grew quickly and he now employs over 400 people and is the largest private employer on the Rock. Victor Chandler has offered free betting from £5, and in 2001 the then Chancellor of the Exchequer Gordon Brown announced that he was scrapping UK betting tax.
