U.S.-based Spectrum Gaming Group LLC and U.K.-based Tottenham & Company, two of the world’s leading gaming consultancies, recently formed an affiliation to provide services to private clients and governments worldwide.
Founded in 1993, Spectrum Gaming Group has served governments from Singapore and Croatia to Massachusetts, Bermuda and Florida, among many others. Spectrum principals have backgrounds in gaming operations, economic analysis, law enforcement, due diligence, gaming regulation, compliance and journalism. Affiliates include Spectrum Asia, Spectrum-i and Spectrum Gaming Capital. The company has offices in Tokyo, Bangkok, New York, Guangzhou, Atlantic City and Las Vegas.
Spectrum Managing Director Fredric Gushin said, “Combining the expertise of two international firms into one entity will create new opportunities for our clients, who cannot afford to stand still while the world changes rapidly.” Spectrum Managing Director Michael Pollock added, “As lotteries, casinos, i-gaming operators and other forces converge, our clients will face unprecedented challenges. This affiliation will help turn those challenges into opportunities in multiple areas.”
Andrew Tottenham founded Tottenham & Company in 1986, guiding its growth into one of the most prestigious management consulting firms specializing in the international gaming industry. The firm’s blue-chip gaming operator clients include Las Vegas Sands, Sun International and Rank PLC, as well as suppliers such Deloitte, KPMG and IGT. The firm also has acted as advisers to the governments of Hungary and Switzerland.
Andrew Tottenham has owned and/or managed casinos in the U.K., Turkey, Spain and the Czech Republic. For five years, he was managing director development Europe for Caesars Entertainment Inc. where he was responsible for Caesars expansion into Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
“Having a presence in the modern gaming world requires knowledge of gaming operations, regulations, cultures and economies on multiple continents. This affiliation creates a one-stop consultancy to provide all that necessary insight,” Tottenham said.
The new consultancy will offer gaming-related services and solutions including market assessments; feasibility studies; economic impact reports; internet gaming research and consulting; operational consulting; regulatory consulting; due diligence investigations; and litigation support.
