The Rank Group's ownership structure is publicly traded, with shares listed on the London Stock Exchange. The largest shareholder in the company is Guoco Group Limited, a Hong Kong-based conglomerate that owns a 56% stake in Rank.
Guoco Group Limited is itself owned by Malaysian businessman Quek Leng Chan and his family. Quek Leng Chan is one of the wealthiest people in Malaysia, with a net worth of over $9 billion according to Forbes.

Despite being publicly traded, The Rank Group has a strong focus on responsible gambling and has implemented a range of measures to ensure that its customers are able to gamble safely and responsibly. These measures include self-exclusion options, where customers can choose to exclude themselves from the casino for a period of time, as well as trained staff who are able to identify and assist customers who may be experiencing problem gambling.
