Why Malta Matters
Malta is a major EU licensing jurisdiction, particularly for gaming, fintech, and financial services. The Malta Gaming Authority is one of the world’s most established regulators for online gaming, and the Malta Financial Services Authority oversees a significant number of EU-passported financial entities.
When a dispute involves a Malta-licensed gaming operator, a financial services entity regulated by the MFSA, or a company operating under an EU license issued through Malta, having established counsel in Valletta provides direct access to the regulatory and judicial systems that govern these entities. Many international companies that interact with US consumers or businesses maintain their licensing and corporate registration in Malta.
