Responsible Gaming MENA launches in the UAE

With the establishment of the General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority (GCGRA), the UAE has created a federal entity to drive a socially responsible and well-regulated gaming environment. In support, Responsible Gaming MENA announces its launch as a compliance, AML and responsible gaming firm.?

Responsible Gaming MENA is dedicated to shaping a gaming industry aligning with UAE Vision 2031, that is rooted in integrity and respect for local values.

Our commitment to financial wellbeing drives our approach, as we work to protect players from financial stress and promote gaming practices that are safe, sustainable, and respectful of the community.” 

The tailored services to support UAE’s vision for responsible gaming encompass three key pillars, each designed to foster compliance and sustainable growth for licensed gaming entities: licensing compliance, advertising standards, an education and training.

In licensing compliance, there will be a comprehensive advisory and outsourcing solutions in regulatory compliance and AML, with flexible “pay as you use” models to meet evolving licensing requirements.
