AGIC's Maggi says land-based gambling reform could bring nine-year concession phase
At a gaming conference in Rome on 14 April, AGIC vice-president Giovanni Emilio Maggi said new concession tenders under Italy's proposed land-based gambling reform could open a nine-year period for investment. He cited local differences in operating rules and said draft plans for a ‘legal distance’ mechanism could allow qualifying certified venues to move beyond many sensitive-site distance restrictions.
The proposed concession terms and venue rules could shape operators' investment decisions and access to Italy's land-based market.
