Isle of Man and Malta in cooperation agreement
Information-sharing agreement follows similar deal between LGA and Jersey regulator.
The Isle of Man Gambling Supervision Commission (GSC) has entered into a deal with its Maltese counterpart, the Lotteries and Gaming Authority (LGA), which formalises the sharing of information between the two regulators.
According to a statement from the GSC, the agreement “Has the principles of protection of consumers and preservation of public order at its centre and the common objective of improving regulatory standards in respect of these principles through exchange of knowledge, provision of assistance and establishment of a good working relationship.”
The deal follows a similar memorandum of understanding between the LGA and the Jersey Gambling Commission, signed last week, while the Maltese body also reached an agreement this year with the Ontario Alcohol and Gambling Commission which has seen the two regulators work together on the exchange of information.
Meanwhile last November the GSC signed a bilateral cooperation agreement with the Danish Gaming Authority ahead of the issue of the first dot.dk online gambling licences.
