Regulators MGA and KSA enter into MoU to prevent illegal gambling
The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) has announced it has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Dutch Gambling Authority (KSA) to prevent illegal gambling activity.
The agreement will see the two authorities cooperate with the common goal to prevent gambling-related criminality, making sure gaming is fair and transparent, and to protect vulnerable players.
The MGA and KSA will share best practices and information relating to their responsibilities and engage in discussions on matters involving illegal activities in each authority’s market.
MGA CEO Heathcliff Farrugia, said: “Our relationship and cooperation with the KSA has already yielded tangible results in the past, and with this MoU, apart from formalising such relationship, a stronger collaboration at an international level is also ensured.”
KSA chairman Renè Jansen, added “These MoU’s are a solid basis to share knowledge, to cooperate, and to smoothly exchange information. At the same time operators will be receiving a clear signal that hands of regulators will be joined internationally.”
In an attempt to clampdown illegal activity, earlier this year the MGA signed separate data-sharing agreements with the International Cricket Council (ICC) and Darts Regulation Authority (DRA), to help tackle match-fixing in the respective sports.
