The update addresses ESG reporting requirements for online gaming licensees in Malta, which falls under the regulatory framework for online gambling operators.
Low confidence — requires human review. While the MGA regulates multiple gambling sectors, the update does not specify which gambling products are covered by the ESG Code, making secondary classification uncertain.
Topic
The update announces the opening of enrolment for the third cycle of ESG Code reporting by the Malta Gaming Authority, requiring licensees to assess and report on their Environmental, Social, and Governance performance.
The ESG Code reporting initiative, while voluntary, establishes expectations and standards that licensees are encouraged to meet, which may evolve into ongoing licence conditions.
