Gibraltar government, which already licenses a number of major UK gambling operators, is now seeking to solidify relationships with its US counterparts, ahead of changes in the US e-gambling market. A delegation, headed by the island's gambling overseer, Minister Gilbert Licudi, visited San Francisco last week to attend the GIGse Totally Gaming Conference. The delegation met a number of important players in the US gambling market, including the Governor of Nevada, Brian Sandoval and the Chairman of the Nevada Gaming Control Board, Mark Liparelli. Licudi commented on Gibraltar's objectives in developing relationships with US gambling bodies and Gibraltar seeking US gambling contacts. "The US market is slowly opening up to e-gaming," he said. "Nevada is the first US state to legislate to allow intrastate interstate poker." Gibraltar Operators Seek Nevada Licenses Don't miss... 32Red Casino Gibraltar Regulatory Authority Microgaming Casinos Minister Licundi said that his government was aware that there are a number of Gibraltar operators interested in branching out by seeking a license in Nevada. "At the same time, various Nevada based operators are interested in being licensed in Gibraltar," he said. "It is therefore in Gibraltar's interest that we have contact with and build a solid relationship with Nevada at both a regulatory and political level." He said that Nevada is regarded as one of the gambling capitals of the world and, in that context, it was very gratifying to learn at the conference that Nevada had a lot to learn from Gibraltar. Gibraltar is Leading eGaming Licensor Since 1998, when Gibraltar issued its first egambling license, it has been considered a leader in gambling licensing. Over the years, the island has built up a reputation as a solid and reputable online gambling jurisdiction, with many of the top players in the market seeking licensing and regulation by the Gibraltar Government. Operators need to prove that they are worthy of a Gibraltar gambling license, including high standards of financial security, customer support and transparency. Extremely tough conditions are set by the Gibraltar Gaming Commission and gamblers who play at online casinos, bingo rooms, sportsbook sites or poker rooms which are licensed by this authority can rest assured that they are receiving the best in terms of service and security. Names of groups carrying Gibraltar licenses include the Microgaming-powered 32Red online casino, Party Casino and Bet365 Casino.
