Sri Lanka is on the verge of establishing its gaming industry through the adoption of a Gambling Regulatory Authority. The Cabinet of Ministers of Sri Lanka recently initiated the process of introducing a Bill to officially recognise and regulate gaming in the country, responding to the industry's substantial growth in recent years. Currently, Sri Lankan customers freely play online casino games on international platforms. However, local operators are hindered from entering the market, giving foreign companies an advantage. Establishing a Regulatory Authority aims to formalise the gaming industry, providing business opportunities for Sri Lankan companies and localised games suited to player preferences.
