Landmark Research Done in Partnership with U.S. Chamber Foundation is Among the First-Ever Comprehensive Analyses of An Industry’s Community Impact

WASHINGTON – The American Gaming Association (AGA) and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation (USCCF) Corporate Citizenship Center today announced the release of first-of-its-kind research analyzing the scope of the U.S. casino gaming industry’s community impact and commitment to communities, employees and customers.

Key findings from the report include:

Gaming industry respondents reported $367 million in charitable giving last year;
Ninety-three percent have comprehensive recycling and energy efficiency programs, 50% higher than the overall private sector;
Sixty-nine percent have an institutionalized diversity and inclusion hiring effort;
Gaming industry employees contribute more than 422,000 volunteer hours per year, nearly five-times more hours per employee than technology industry employees; and
One-hundred percent of AGA member companies surveyed have a responsible gaming policy.

The research revealed that a majority of companies are committed to responsibility as an integral part of their strategic goals and that the overall success of the gaming industry depends on how well companies can support the communities they serve. The gaming industry outpaces most private sector industries in its commitment to diverting waste from landfill and instituting green building and water conservation programs. The full research is available here.

“Above all else, the gaming industry’s highest priority is to promote responsibility in all that we do, from being constructive partners in the communities where we operate, providing exceptional career opportunities to industry employees and ensuring all patrons have the tools they need to engage in our offerings in a responsible manner,” said Bill Miller, president and chief executive officer of the American Gaming Association. “Today’s report shows that the gaming industry is making good on our promise to be responsible community partners, contributing economically and socially to communities across the country.”

“While corporate social responsibility (CSR) reports continue to become standard practice among American businesses, it is rare to see the collective impact of an entire sector,” said Carolyn Cawley, president of the U.S. Chamber Foundation. “We’re proud to work with AGA to release this groundbreaking research that illustrates the gaming industry’s positive efforts in the communities they serve.”

Methodology: The Chamber Foundation analyzed the corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs of AGA members, including a variety of company types and sizes, through quantitative and qualitative research. In the third quarter of 2018, USCCF and AGA surveyed and interviewed 15 AGA member respondents on the scale and scope of their corporate social responsibilities. Those companies represent 168 casino properties, 235,000 U.S. employees and $33 billion in total revenue.

About AGA: The American Gaming Association is the premier national trade group representing the $261 billion U.S. casino industry, which supports 1.8 million jobs nationwide. AGA members include commercial and tribal casino operators, gaming suppliers and other entities affiliated with the gaming industry. It is the mission of the AGA to achieve sound policies and regulations consistent with casino gaming’s modern appeal and vast economic contributions.

About the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation: The U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation is dedicated to strengthening America’s long-term competitiveness. We educate the public on the conditions necessary for business and communities to thrive, how business positively impacts communities, and emerging issues and creative solutions that will shape the future.

Casino Management Systems Market Overview

Technological Advancements Propel Growth: Technological advancements play a crucial role in driving the ever-changing Casino Management Systems Market. Advancements like AI-powered analytics, integration with IoT, and mobile compatibility contribute to improved operational efficiency and increased customer engagement. These advancements fuel the need for businesses to improve their operations and provide exceptional customer experiences, leading to the growth of the market.

Rising Demand for Enhanced Security Solutions: Security is a major concern in the Casino Management Systems Market, leading to a high demand for cutting-edge security solutions. Given the rising number of fraudulent activities and data breaches, casinos are actively looking for strong security measures to protect their assets and ensure the safety of customer information. Addressing these concerns, solutions that provide biometric authentication, encryption, and real-time monitoring can foster trust among stakeholders and contribute to market growth.

Increasing Regulatory Compliance Requirements: The Casino Management Systems Market is seeing a notable increase in demand due to the growing importance of regulatory compliance. Comprehensive compliance solutions are required to meet the stringent regulations in the gaming industry. By utilising systems that provide regulatory reporting, audit trails, and age verification capabilities, casinos can ensure compliance with legal requirements and prevent potential penalties. The increasing emphasis on compliance highlights the significance of advanced management systems, driving the growth of the market.

High Initial Investment Costs: One of the main challenges in the Casino Management Systems Market is the significant upfront costs involved in implementing comprehensive management solutions. Acquiring, integrating, and customising these systems can result in significant upfront expenses for casinos. The financial obstacle hinders the expansion of the market, especially for small and medium-sized businesses. Nevertheless, companies that offer adaptable pricing structures and scalable solutions can help alleviate this limitation, thereby expanding the market’s accessibility to a wider array of businesses.

Integration Challenges and Legacy Systems: The Casino Management Systems Market faces significant challenges due to the complexities of integration and the presence of legacy systems. It is common for casinos to have a wide range of IT infrastructures, some of which may be outdated and incompatible with modern management solutions. Implementing new systems and ensuring smooth compatibility with current infrastructure demands significant time, resources, and specialised knowledge. The integration challenges mentioned can impede market growth as they result in longer implementation timelines and higher deployment costs.

Concerns Regarding Data Privacy and Security: In the ever-growing landscape of data breaches and privacy scandals, the Casino Management Systems Market faces significant challenges when it comes to data privacy and security. Casinos are responsible for managing extensive amounts of sensitive customer data, which includes personal and financial information. This makes them highly attractive to cyber threats. With increasing regulatory scrutiny, casinos are under growing pressure to maintain data protection standards and ensure the privacy of their customers. Tackling these concerns necessitates strong security measures and adherence to data privacy regulations, which introduces additional complexity and expenses to system implementations, thereby limiting market expansion.

Geographic Dominance:
The forecast period is expected to see the Asia Pacific region experiencing the most significant growth. Several countries in the Asia Pacific region, such as Macau, Singapore, the Philippines, and South Korea, have experienced significant expansion in their casino industry. Emerging markets are actively expanding their gaming sectors in order to attract more tourists and boost revenue. This expansion requires sophisticated management systems to optimise operations, enhance visitor experiences, and ensure compliance with regulations.

In addition, the Asia-Pacific region has experienced a notable rise in middle-class populations and disposable incomes. As a result, there has been a growing trend of increased leisure spending, with a particular focus on gaming and entertainment. With the increasing number of casino visitors, there is a growing need for cutting-edge casino management systems. This has led to the creation of innovative technologies that enhance customer service, marketing strategies, and overall operational efficiency.
