Reuters reports that Turkey’s national lottery, Milli Piyango, is almost prepared for privatization and the tender process will begin soon.

Two sources have confirmed that a completed draft decree on the transfer is set to be printed in the Official Gazette shortly after the country’s Supreme Privatization Board confirms the tender is ready.

GTech-Lottomatica, Essnet-Tattersall, Scientific Games, Camelot, OPAP and Intralot S.A. made the long list of companies interested in the tender.
