Banking Solutions for iGaming Businesses

With increased regulations of the local Banks in Malta towards to high risk clients to refuse to give their service, it became tricky for the sector to have bank accounts for their organization.

Even though companies are operating under one of the most regulated licensee – MGA, and following each compliance requirements, that didn’t change bank’s opinion. 2019, most of the local banks had sent legal letter to their I-gaming clients to inform them that they have a few months to remove their funds from their player and business accounts. De-risking strategy is the part of practice of financial institutions to exit relationship with their ‘’High risk’’ clients.

The I-gaming industry facing their own challenges in the view of risk associated level in the industry. Rather than managing those risky clients with following the regulator’s directive, banks decided to follow easier path to exit relationship with them.
