Wait, you think the larger a property gets, the easier it gets to secure it?

I'm guessing s/he means that there are fewer total such sites, so any regulatory body wouldn't have as many individual properties to monitor.

That is to say, it's a reference to the effort of the regulatory body, not of the property managers themselves.

No, but the larger the company the more incentive it has to meet regulatory demands. There are also much fewer such companies so they are easier to identify and check.
