The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) is enhancing its regulatory oversight approach and is outlining its supervisory focus areas for 2025. These enhancements are aimed at strengthening its supervision of the online gaming sector while promoting transparency with stakeholders.
Building on its existing risk-based framework, the MGA is enhancing such framework to a more evidence-driven and outcomes-focused model. This strategic approach will enable the Authority to better assess and address industry risks, allocate resources more effectively, and foster a more proactive and responsive regulatory environment.
Central to this enhanced oversight strategy are the compliance, player protection and sports betting integrity regulatory themes. By prioritising these key areas, the MGA aims to uphold the highest industry standards and reinforce its role as a trusted regulator.
Key outcomes of this refined regulatory approach include:
• Risk-Based Resource Allocation: Directing resources to high-risk areas to ensure more effective regulatory interventions;
• Enhanced Collaboration: Strengthening collaboration with operators to promote compliance and best practices;
• Proactive Risk Management: Anticipating and addressing emerging challenges in a dynamic gaming landscape.
This approach aligns with the MGA’s broader strategy to bolster the resilience of the online gaming sector, safeguard player interests and foster greater stakeholder confidence in a sustainable and well-regulated industry.
