Vulnerabilities of Casinos and Gaming Sector

At the end of March 2009 the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and the Asia/Pacific Group on Money Laundering (APG)
published a report 'Vulnerabilities of Casinos and Gaming Sector', which was lead by Rachael Horton of New Zealand's Department of Internal Affairs.

The project has examined and illustrated areas of vulnerabilities in the gaming and casino sectors with an emphasis on legal sectors that have a physical presence. The project has sought to identify sector-specific money laundering or terrorist financing indicators and to highlight possible policy implications for effective implementation of the FATF standards to cover casinos and gaming.

The study can be used as a practical resource for governments and gaming sectors to increase awareness, strengthen interventions and training, and support international policy formation.
