The iGaming sphere in Malta has flourished over the past twenty years, and today contributes to over 12% of Malta’s overall GDP. Malta has been able to capitalise on its EU first mover advantage, and has continued to be proactive in developing its regulatory framework to sustain the island’s competitive edge at the forefront of the gaming sphere. Today, Malta hosts in excess of 300 gaming companies and sports a workforce of over 10,000 multi-national industry professionals.
Particularly in the gaming sphere, new directives, laws and regulations are the order of the day.
Malta is hard at work in safeguarding and renewing its jurisdictional benefits, both to continue enticing new entities to set up their gaming (or related) business here and also in ensuring that existing operators have sufficient reasons to stay. To this end, the Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) is spearheading a suite of new initiatives that are enjoying wide support across the gaming industry. These changes are aimed to ensure that Malta remains a gaming hub of excellence, a professional and reputable jurisdiction.
