カジノを含むＩＲ＝統合型リゾート施設の整備法がことし７月に成立したことを受けて、世界各国でカジノを展開するオーストリアの国有企業が日本への参入を目指すことを表明しました。

日本への参入の意向を表明したのは、世界35か国でカジノなどの娯楽施設を展開しているオーストリアの国有企業「カジノオーストリアインターナショナル」です。

５日、都内のオーストリア大使館で開かれた記者会見で、クリストフ・ツールッカー＝ブルダＣＥＯは、「国有企業として厳しい監督を受けながら事業を展開してきた経験を生かして、日本でも上質なカジノを開設したい」と述べました。

会社では、カジノに医療施設を併設し、日本の最先端の医療を受けに来た観光客の取り込みを目指したいとしています。

また、ギャンブル依存症などへの対策も十分なノウハウを持っているとしていて、今後、誘致を目指す国内の自治体にＰＲしていく考えです。

ＩＲをめぐっては、アメリカでカジノを運営している企業なども参入を目指す意向を表明しています。

政府は、今後２年をめどに整備に向けた基本方針を策定したうえで、誘致を目指す都道府県などから計画の申請を募り、整備区域を決めることにしています。

Casinos Austria, formed in 1967 and based in Austria, is a gaming corporation that owns and operates casinos around the globe. It is one of the largest casino operators in the world. Casinos Austria together with its partners operate in about 40 land-based casinos in 16 countries, 8 shipboard casinos, 15 slot parlors, a range of lottery products in Argentina, and one online gambling platform. Together the CAI (Casinos Austria International) Group’s gaming entertainment operations feature over 750 gaming tables and 7,600 gambling machines.^[1]
The Headquarters of the company was located in the Palais Ephrussi from 1969 to 2009. It is now at Rennweg 44 in the 3rd district of Vienna.



Palais Ephrussi is a former Ringstraßenpalais in Vienna. It was built for the Ephrussi family of financiers by Theophil Freiherr von Hansen, the architect of the Austrian Parliament Building. It is on the Ringstrasse, specifically the Universitätsring (formerly Doctor-Karl-Lueger-Ring), opposite the Votivkirche.^[1]

The palace was heavily damaged during World War II. One whole wing was destroyed. Following the defeat of the Nazis, the palace was in the American sector of Vienna and its surviving part used by the American Headquarters to house its Legal Council Property Control.
Elisabeth de Waal, who visited Vienna in December 1945 after relocating to England, found paintings of her mother and grandmother still hanging on a wall, having evidently been kept for decoration by the Nazis during their tenure of the building. She also met a former servant named Anna who had saved and loyally kept the family's collection of valuable Japanese netsuke.
In 1950, after considerable litigation, surviving members of the Ephrussi family scattered throughout the world regained legal title to the building (as well as to some of the many books and works of art taken from it). But having no wish to go back to live in Vienna, which held painful and traumatic memories for them, the Ephrussis sold the building for the equivalent of $50,000 - a price lower than its true value, due to its damaged condition and to the still depressed economic situation in Vienna at the time.

Present day

From 1969 to 2009 the renovated palace served as the headquarters of Casinos Austria, whose management facilitated Edmund de Waal's research into the building's history. The destroyed wing has been replaced with a modern building, which housed the OPEC for a while.


The Ephrussi family (French pronunciation: ​[ɛfʁysi]) were a Russian Jewish banking and oil dynasty.^[1]

History

The progenitor, Charles Joachim Ephrussi (1792–1864), from Berdichev, made a fortune controlling grain distribution beginning in the free port of Odessa (then Russian Empire, now Ukraine)^[1] and later controlled large-scale oil resources across Crimea and the Caucasus. By 1860 the family was the world’s largest grain exporter.^[1]
Charles Joachim's eldest son, Leonid (d. 1877), founded a bank in Odessa, while his brother Ignaz (1829–1899) moved to the Austrian capital, Vienna, where he established the Ephrussi & Co. banking house in 1856. In 1872 he was elevated to the noble rank of Ritter by Habsburg emperor Franz Joseph I. In 1871 Leonid, together with his younger half-brothers Michel (1845–1914) and Maurice Ephrussi (1849–1916), founded a branch in Paris, followed by subsidiaries in London and Athens.
During the 19th century, the family possessed vast wealth, owning many castles, palaces, and estates in Europe. The family were known for their connoisseurship, intellectual interests, and their huge collections of art.^[2] Leonid's son Charles Ephrussi (1849–1905), a well-known art historian, collector and editor, became a model for the character of Charles Swann in Marcel Proust's novel In Search of Lost Time.
The family's bank and properties were seized by the Nazi authorities after the 1938 Anschluss annexation of Austria by Nazi Germany.^[1]

The family name is considered to be a variation of Ephrati, a Jewish family name attested in various countries since the 14th century and still current in present-day Israel, transformed through the Ashkenazi pronunciation (Ephrati–Ephrassi–Ephrussi).^[3]
