Confirming the news on its website, Casino MK said administrators were appointed on April 8. Trading operations have been suspended while the administrators pursue a potential transaction.
Andrew James Johnson, Matthew Boyd Callaghan and Shamil Malde of FTI Consulting are serving as joint administrators. They are reviewing Aspers UK Holdings as well as certain other subsidiaries.
Aspers Group Limited, Aspers Finance Limited and Aspers (Milton Keynes) Limited are also declared as in administration.
“The affairs, business and property of the companies are being managed by the joint administrators,” Casino MK said. “The joint administrators act as agents of the companies and without personal liability.”
What Might the Future Hold for Casino MK?
Casino MK opened its doors in 2013 as the second large-license super casino in the UK. The venue offers a range of gaming options including slots, table games, poker and sports betting.
Other on-site amenities include Clary’s Bar & Grill, Tanzibar and live music. Customers can also view live sports events on several large screens within the venue.
It is unclear when the casino may open again. Reports in local newspaper the MK Citizen say staff have been sent home and told not to return to work until further notice.
