Felons will have a more difficult time transferring dirty cash in Philippine casinos after the country’s Anti-Money Laundering Council (AMLC) issued fresh rules for the brick-and-mortar facilities.

The 23-page implementing rules and regulations that the AMLC drafted with the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp., the Cagayan Economic Zone Authority, and the Aurora Pacific Economic Zone and Freeport has laid out the do’s and don’ts for casino operators.

In a nutshell, the new IRR requires casinos to put in place “sound risk management policies” to stem the flow of illicitly obtained cash.

This includes requiring all players to present valid identification cards before opening an account or redeeming casino chips into cash.
