David has been in the casino industry for over 30 years, across casino operations, compliance, surveillance and licensing, now fully focused as the Managing Director of Casino Compliance (www.casinocompliance.com), a specialist casino consultancy which he has run for the past 15 years, supporting operators with corporate governance, AML expertise, GC reviews, audits, training and investigation, including acting as the expert witness for the sensational Phil Ivey v Genting case in the UK High Court.
David has a wealth of experience and knowledge about the casino and online sector, which ultimately led him to launch Casino Brokers (www.casinobrokers.com). Anyone selling a casino in the UK or overseas would be well advised to check in with him, and if you’re a potential buyer it’s pretty much mandatory – he knows of deals that nobody else can see.
He’s another Friend of GRS with an astonishing web of connections, and the nature of his casino purchase / sales business means he’s usually streets ahead of anyone with knowledge of what’s going on in the market – although he’s annoyingly discreet ! A massive rugby fan who, at time of writing, is away with the British and Irish Lions, the periodic chats we have with David keep us up to speed with what’s going on, and many times we’ve exchanged possible business opportunities.
Another fine companion at dinner or drinks, the combination of industry knowledge and familiarity with pretty much anyone who’s anyone in the casino business means he’s a man you need to know!
