An Attractive Offer
Not all gambling jurisdictions are created equally if you ask any online casinos
and companies operating in the various sectors of the market. Over the past year
or so, as the global economy begins to slow and operators face tough choices,
gambling jurisdictions with low duty fees and heaps of benefits are moving to
the top of the list. The Isle of Man is one of the most attractive licensing
jurisdictions for online gambling companies. The jurisdiction retains a lot of
respect from the international industry because of high licensing standards and
online casino gambling companies love the Isle of Man because of low duty rates.
Another reason that is just beginning to factor into the decision making process
is the fact that not only are the top online casinos and internet poker sites
licensed out of the Isle of Man, but so are payment solution providers, fraud
prevention specialists, and a slew of other industry related companies. Despite
the slowing economy in the rest of the world, the Isle of Man predicts that the
it will continue to have new jobs to offer residents throughout 2009 and
possibly longer as more and more online casinos apply for licensing within the
jurisdiction.
According to recent information released from Isle of Man officials the last
three years has been very successful for the island and for citizens – more than
360 jobs were created from online casinos and gambling companies moving their
base operations to the Isle of Man. And another plus, many of the jobs are
specialized and thus higher paying – a even bigger benefit to the island’s
economy. |
