Marty Goldman, Carnival Corporation's Senior Vice President of Global Gaming, stated that the partnership opens new avenues for collaboration and knowledge-sharing [1].
By joining the AGA, Carnival Corporation reinforces its commitment to maintaining high standards of compliance, including anti-money laundering initiatives and responsible gaming practices. The benefits of this partnership are expected to directly benefit Carnival Corporation's guests, team members, and the broader organization [1][3].
In conclusion, Carnival Corporation's membership in the AGA strategically helps the company maintain and strengthen its gaming operations on cruise ships by leveraging industry knowledge, fostering partnerships, and aligning with the top standards for responsible and innovative gaming [1][3].
