"We are anxious that Argentina to have a regulatory framework for Golden Race to operate"

What are you presenting in SAGSE Latin America? 


For all the shows of the last semester of the year, including SAGSE, we have focused on our new online solution, to customize our product more to the needs that online customers have today.


How do you see the show?


We are very happy to participate in SAGSE. For Golden Race is one of the points already obligated regarding to the shows and it is important to have a presence. Most of the visitors we received at the stand were people from Brazil and Paraguay. I think that until Argentina does not have a federal gambling law, companies like ours will continue to have more visitors from neighboring countries than from here.


How do you see the Argentine market?


It is one of the most important markets for Latin America, every company would like to work here. In addition, the tradition of soccer that Argentina has, very few countries in the world have it. I think the country should have a federal gaming law because it is losing a lot of ground. All companies are willing to have a law, even it would be beneficial for the government in terms of the tax because it would raise a lot of money in taxes. I think this is the right moment, they should not delay it anymore.


How is Golden Race positioned in Latin America?


We are the first virtual games company that has come, has settled, opened offices, has invested ... We are already finishing the GLI certification for Coljuegos to be able to operate throughout Colombia. We are currently operating in Peru, the market allows us because of the regulation that exists. Nowadays Golden Race has positioned itself in the first position.


What is your assessment of this year?


Excellent. In the meetings of managers that we made in Europe we do the projection for the following year. We had a projection for the Latin American market in 2017 and we have almost tripled it. So expectations have been exceeded. That is why I say that any European company would be very willing to work in the Latin American market, but we always depend on the regulations in each country, so we are anxious that Argentina to have a regulatory framework for our company to operate here.
