The MGA mandates that operators appoint individuals to Key Functions, pivotal roles responsible for core business and gaming operations. These Key Persons are required to obtain a Key Function certificate, signifying their competence and adherence to the 'fit and proper' criteria set by the Authority. This rigorous process ensures that individuals responsible for these crucial roles possess the necessary skills, knowledge, and integrity to perform their duties effectively

The MGA expects Key Persons to continually update their knowledge and skills, aligning with the latest developments and best practices in their respective areas. This commitment to professional growth ensures that Key Persons maintain a comprehensive understanding of the intricacies involved in their roles, contributing to the proficient execution of their designated Key Functions.

Certain Key Functions, due to the nature of their responsibilities, are incompatible with other roles within the organisation. This segregation is vital to prevent conflicts of interest and ensure the unbiased execution of duties. A prime example is the Internal Audit Key Function, which must remain independent and distinct from all other roles to uphold its objectivity and effectiveness.
