Casino Cosmopol gets ECA Responsible Gambling certificate

Sweden’s Casino Cosmopol has obtained the ECA Responsible Gambling Framework certification. The company achieved this after the Global Gambling Guidance Group (G4) conducted an independent audit.

The certification confirms that the state-owned company is performing in line with the latest standards in responsible gambling for the licensed land-based casinos industry that were updated by the ECA at the beginning of the year.

“Our mandate is to promote a healthy and safe gaming market in which our customers can enjoy the great offer we provide across our four casinos, said Per Jal- dung,” CEO of Casino Cosmopol and chairman of the ECA.

“For this to be successful, Responsible Gambling has to be the centre-point of all our actions and we were therefore eager to have this commitment put to the test through certification under the ECA Responsible Gambling Framework.

“We are delighted to have successfully been certified and thereby continue our engagement with this crucial topic for our industry.”

Casino Cosmopol joins the growing number of ECA members certified according to the 2018 Responsible Gambling Framework, including Germany’s Spielbanken Baden-Württemberg and Casinos Austria with a number of other leading operators in the process of certification.

The framework sets an industry standard for the effective management of Responsible Gambling in areas ranging from awareness-raising and employee training to marketing and stakeholder engagement.

Certification is granted to ECA members after an independent third-party audit has been conducted.

“The audit showed the strong involvement of all employees of Casino Cosmopol in the Responsible Gambling programme, which is exemplary and an important aspect to taking the issue seriously,” added Ynze Remmers, G4’s lead auditor, who oversaw the audit.
