As we enter a new chapter with the launch of AG Consult, our new advisory business, we have rebranded as Asean Gaming.
AG Consult offers end-to-end licensing, compliance, governance, strategy and media support for operators, regulators and investors from Asia-Pacific and further afield.
The rebranding brings consistency across our platforms: Asean Gaming publishes your daily Asean Gaming Brief and organizes the ASEAN Gaming Summit.
AG Consult draws on the experience and networks built over years of reporting on the industry, connecting stakeholders and bringing together regulators, operators, suppliers and all manner of service providers.
The advisory proposition rests on a two-pronged approach: clients can engage AG Consult directly for a defined project or an ongoing mandate, or they can use it as a route into a wider network.
Luis Pereira, Managing Director of Asean Gaming, commented: “We’ve been very fortunate over the years to work with industry leaders and stakeholders from all sectors and jurisdictions, and it’s been this company’s ambition to capitalize on the experience and network we’ve accumulated from them. The new service allows us to do just that.”
“With AG Consult, we’ll do more than just point people in the right direction. We’ll be part of the solution, either by providing direct advisory or connecting parties with real Asian experience and expertise. In a market where genuine regional experience is scarce, riddled with gaps, and extremely challenging to find, this matchmaking role is as much the point of AG Consult as the direct advisory work,” he added.
Services
AG Consult is a boutique, senior-led advisory practice by design, connecting clients with specialist expertise with proven track records in their fields. The service spans 25 specialist areas grouped under four pillars.
Licensing and authorization covers jurisdiction selection, application drafting and regulator liaison, responsible gambling frameworks and banking and payments readiness, across at least 12 jurisdictions. These include the Isle of Man, Malta, Gibraltar, the United Kingdom, Estonia, Curaçao, Anjouan, Nevis, Tobique, Kahnawake, Tuvalu and Liberia.
Compliance covers the full ongoing lifecycle, from outsourced MLRO, Compliance Officer and Data Protection Officer roles through AML and CFT framework design, regulatory readiness and mock audits, data protection, training, internal audit, forensic advisory and remediation.
Advisory covers the strategic and commercial layer, including market entry, M&A and corporate finance, technology and platform selection, land-based casino development, wealth structuring, government regulatory design and ESG.
Media and Events draws directly on Asean Gaming’s own strengths, offering PR and crisis communications, thought leadership, conference and roundtable production, as well as brand activation at the major international events. AG Consult clients also benefit from direct access to Asean Gaming’s readership across Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and beyond.
Alternative dispute resolution, a licensing requirement in a growing number of jurisdictions, is handled through AG Consult-affiliated service iGamingADR, which is already approved as an ADR provider under frameworks including Anjouan, Nevis, Curaçao and Tobique.
AG Consult is offering free, no-obligation consultations for operators, regulators and investors weighing their next move. Details of all 25 service areas are available at aseangaming.com/consult.
Asean Gaming is no longer affiliated with Asia Gaming Brief.
The launch of the consultancy arm is part of a series of initiatives we are rolling out over the coming months. Stay tuned for more!
