The Chief Executive of the National Lottery has said that the UK National Lottery is just the beginning for the new owners and they already have their sites on other lottery draws around the world. The Ontario Teacher’s Pension Plan only just completed their sale of the UK National Lottery but already have a bid in on another world lottery draw and are looking to secure several more. The company who now own and run the UK National Lottery and are in the final stages of bidding for the Florida Lottery but it isn’t going to stop there.
According to a statement by the Chief Executive, the new owners of the UK National Lottery intend on bidding on at least six lottery draws from around the world, making a real name for themselves. For a pension fund, the Ontario Teacher’s Pension Plan is certainly making it’s mark in the world of business.

What changes will be made to the UK National Lottery, if any are yet to be decided with the changeover to the new owners taking place now. And when the Ontario Teacher’s Pension Plan own all of these lottery draws, will the rumours of a Global Lottery flare up again?
Originally an idea put forward by the former UK National Lottery owners, the Global Lottery idea was recently linked to the US Powerball Lottery. What will happen now is anyone’s guess but if the new lottery owners are prepared to go all out to own so many of the world lottery draws that it would come as little surprise to see them running a Global Lottery draw too.
