Switzerland’s Federal Council has renewed all the casino licences in the country for 20 more years, starting next year whilst ushering in a new licence in Prilly and a replacement to the Schaffhausen casino in Winterthur.
“I’m pleased that Swiss Casinos has joined the association and with it the entire casino industry with one voice can speak,” Mr. Pfister added.
Gerhard Pfister, Swiss Casino Association President, said: “The granting of the new concessions is a milestone. The federal government has recognised that today’s casinos ensure safe and responsible operations and generate great economic benefits in their region.”
Casinos in Zurich, Schaffhausen, St Gallen and Pfäffikon, all owned by Swiss Casino Group, have all joined the Swiss Casino Association.
Swiss Casinos board member Marc Baumann said: “We are happy to work together with the Swiss Casino Association to help shape the future. The online business is changing the Swiss casino industry sustainably.”
