Flutter & Stars Group join forces in Australia

As the Stars Group continues to grow all the time, it’s a partnership with Flutter Entertainment has gathered plenty of interest. The Stars Group has been given the informal regulatory approval that it needs to make a partnership merger with Flutter come to pass. This has been given the first stage of approval needed to then progress this to the next level. For any Australian online casino gamer looking to try out some new pokies, then, this should be seen only as good news for you.

The merger will need to be further approved, though, as it needs to go through numerous national regulators. In Australia, though, the deal has been given the (informal) A-OK. This is a good sign of what could come in the future, though the companies will need to find a way to get approval in locations where they have a genuine presence.

This would be one of the largest mergers to take place in the online gaming circuit for sure. It would need to be approved by regulatory bodies like the Australian Foreign Investment Review Board, though, as well as markets like the Competition and Markets Authority in the UK. If this is combination is allowed to take place, though, we could see a hugely interesting merger among two of the most powerful names in Australian casino gaming.

Should the merger go ahead as expected, then, gamers can look forward to more options and potential than ever before.
