Kahnawake Gaming Commission Turns to eCOGRA - 01-28-10

January 28 - In a bid to improve its image and improve the standards of some fifty five gambling operator licensees, the Kahnawake Gaming Commission has requested that eCOGRA step in as an Approved Agent to ensure that its licensees comply to a new program rolled out by the Commission.

The Continuous Compliance Program will ensure that the companies licensed through the KGC meet international best standard practices through annual assessment for compliance of KGC regulations, as well as key regulatory objectives, and ongoing analysis of live gaming data.

The Chief Executive of eCOGRA, Andrew Beveridge said: "The KGC and its licensees have demonstrated a great determination to achieve best practice standards, and we respect the commitment that has so far been shown."

"Our extensive work with our own eCOGRA accredited operators and those of EGBA has repeatedly illustrated that the right standards, professionally and diligently applied and maintained by an independent third party, produce outstanding results that enhance the reputation and productivity of participating companies," he added.

The Kahnawake Gaming Commission said that it had a long standing working relationship with eCOGRA and was confident that the group would assist in effectively implementing the new Continuous Compliance Program.

"eCOGRA is a non profit standards and player protection company that has a substantial staff of professionally qualified and industry experienced Chartered Accountants who have completed hundreds of compliance inspections over the past six years," said KGC Chairman, Dean Montour. "The company, which is itself reviewed annually by KPMG, has the resources to assess compliance and conduct monitoring programs to ensure game fairness and adherence to key KGC objectives, and is eminently suited to the task."
