Melco Cyprus, operator of Cyprus Casinos (C2) and upcoming integrated resort, City of Dreams Mediterranean, yesterday evening announced it has become the first gaming operator in Europe to achieve international third-party responsible gaming accreditation “RG Check” from the Responsible Gambling Council.

The Responsible Gambling Council is a Canada-based independent non-profit organization which seeks to advance responsible gambling standards globally, with its RG Check accreditation program seen as one of the world’s most comprehensive and rigorous. Valid for three years, it is designed to meet or exceed all existing responsible gaming regulatory requirements.

The accreditation sees Melco now recognized by RG Check in all its properties, namely Altira Macau, City of Dreams Macau, Studio City Macau, City of Dreams Manila, and now Cyprus’ C2. The most recent accreditation has been awarded to all four C2 venues – Limassol, Nicosia, Ayia Napa and Paphos.

“RGC is thrilled that Melco has once again demonstrated its commitment to responsible gaming by achieving the RG Check accreditation in Cyprus for each of its four operating Cyprus Casinos properties. Throughout this process, Melco has demonstrated its transparency as an operator and has made duty of care a priority in its operations,” said Responsible Gambling Council CEO, Shelley White.

“In particular, we commend Melco on a best-in-class score in the Standard Areas of RG Policy, Strategy and Culture which recognizes Melco’s strong responsible gaming leadership and its comprehensive and integrated approach to building a responsible gaming culture that demonstrates awareness of the potential harms caused by gambling, as well as prevention and mitigation measures.”

Melco Chairman and CEO Lawrence Ho added, “Melco is dedicated to being the industry’s leader in the promotion of Responsible Gaming. Providing a safe and fair gaming experience for guests continues to be at the core of the Company’s commitment to society.

“The sustainable development and continued implementation of a Responsible Gaming culture is prioritized within every jurisdiction that we operate. We wish to thank the RG Check organizers for the honor, and our colleagues in Cyprus for making this achievement possible.”
