Not look at opening at an exchange. Betfair making huge amounts of money, surely a plc with the customer bases of the above 2 could do a decent job of an exchange??

The problem for the existing bookies is their own exchange would cannibalize their existing business.

Doubtless the profit margins for a bookie are much juicier than for an exchange.

IMO, a competitor will come from a start up.
