The Star Casino With their gambling license recently revoked, Sydney's Star Casino is primed to roll out reforms under the watchful eye of a gambling commission-appointed independent monitor. This initiative aims to reclaim their licensure in the near future.
The Star Casino embarks on a path to implement its ambitious reform agenda.
Last update: February, 2025
The Star Casino was declared unfit for a license due to lapses in anti-money laundering and responsible gaming practices. Despite New South Wales' gambling commission's adverse ruling, complete shutdown seemed unlikely. The casino's sheer scale means halting operations would lead to massive job losses, impacting everyone from dealers to dining staff. Hence, operations continue albeit under rigorous supervision even at other locations like Star Gold Coast in Queensland. Blackjack Consulting firm Allen & Overy was tasked in August by The Star to devise a revamp plan focused on anti-money laundering and responsible gaming gaps. The program strategically addresses underlying issues impacting their license eligibility.
Monitoring the renewal program diligently, Allen & Overy remarks: “We'll keenly track the progress, consulting insights from the fresh leadership at The Star Sydney and similar roles at The Star Gold Coast and Treasury Brisbane.”
