(Malta).- The Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) is stepping up its efforts to combat gambling-related harm, unveiling new initiatives to strengthen player protection during Problem Gambling Awareness Month this March.
A key development is the upcoming launch of a self-assessment tool, designed to help individuals evaluate their gambling habits and access tailored support. First announced during Safer Gambling Week in November, the initiative is now in its final stages, with the MGA working to ensure it provides meaningful assistance to those who need it.
The Authority also continues to enhance its guidance and supervision. By strengthening the monitoring of self-exclusion systems and deepening our analysis of player protection mechanisms, we are refining our approach to mitigating gambling-related harm.
Collaboration remains central to our mission. We are working closely with the Responsible Gaming Foundation and Aġenzija Appoġġ, fostering further opportunities for knowledge exchange. Next month, we will host the next workshop in our ongoing series of focus groups with local NGOs. These sessions reinforce transparency in our regulatory approach across both the remote and land-based sectors, while addressing emerging challenges for individuals seeking support.
By adopting a data-driven approach and collaborating with international partners, the MGA remains steadfast in its commitment to reducing gambling-related harm and strengthening player protection.
