Mazars  in Malta

The recently introduced Gaming Regulations require all licensed gaming entities to establish an internal audit function. The responsibility for internal audit is considered to be a key function in the new regulatory framework.
The iGaming industry has grown rapidly over recent years, leading to changes in the size and complexity of operations. The external environments have also changed at a fast pace and continue to place additional responsibilities and pressures on iGaming governance structures and control frameworks.
It is in this context that the internal audit function can add value and contribute to improving organisational operations. This key function helps accomplish business objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to the evaluation and improvement of the effectiveness of risk management, control, and governance processes.
Whether you are an owner, director, or head of compliance, the management of risk is of critical importance.
