Ainsworth Game Technology Inc. finds itself back in the spotlight after the Forest County Potawatomi Gaming Commission began a suitability review of the company amid a new wave of regulatory scrutiny surrounding parent company Novomatic AG.
Novomatic’s ongoing legal problems put Ainsworth’s US operations under a spotlight, though the unit itself was not accused of any wrongdoing. Despite the regulatory challenges, Ainsworth managed to retain its license following the Potawatomi suitability probe, ensuring continuity for its US business.
