Now that gambling companies have set their sights on the United Arab Emirates, New Jersey gambling regulators say they will work with their counterparts in the Middle East on cybersecurity and consumer protection.
On a visit Wednesday to Abu Dhabi, New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy signed a memorandum of agreement with that nation’s General Commercial Gaming Regulatory Authority.
Gambling companies including Wynn Resorts and MGM Resorts International are planning casinos in the United Arab Emirates.
“New Jersey’s role as a national leader and international destination for gaming is strengthened by global partnerships that drive innovation in an industry where consumers seek exciting experiences,” Murphy said in the release.
