Nevada Gaming Commission adopts casino AML rules for compliance staff
The Nevada Gaming Commission unanimously approved amendments to Regulation 5 at its 23 April meeting, requiring regulators to vet and license casino staff with anti-money-laundering responsibilities. The rules also cover AML-related dismissals, independent agents and businesses that fund patrons’ wagering; NGCB member George Assad separately proposed a whistleblower reward of 1% of seized funds.
Casino operators will face new licensing, reporting and oversight requirements for anti-money-laundering compliance.
