NEW YORK, July 13, 2017 -- Spectrum Gaming Capital served as the financial advisor to CNS Group of Cyprus in its successful pursuit, with Hong Kong based Melco International, of the exclusive license to develop an integrated casino resort in Cyprus. The €500M+ resort will be developed in Limassol, the second largest city and main tourist destination in Cyprus, on property contributed to the joint venture by CNS Group. CNS is a prominent diversified Cyprus-based company with interests that include media, agriculture, hospitality and exports. The Resort will be operated by Melco International.
Phase I of the resort is expected to be completed in 2020 and is presently planned to include:

- A water park, pool, spa and beach club
A temporary casino in Limassol and four satellite gaming locations in Nicosia, Larnaca, Paphos and Ayia Napa are expected to be operational in 2018.
