Portugal's government will not have to repay €15.5 million to Solverde, the operator of three Algarve casinos (Monte Gordo, Praia da Rocha, and Vilamoura). This decision comes after the Supreme Administrative Court annulled a previous ruling from an arbitration tribunal that had mandated the payment last July. This outcome marks a significant victory for the state in its ongoing financial dealings with the casino group.
