Gaming revenues to reach MOP 360 billion by 2014: report
The latest report from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) on Casino Gaming estimates that revenues in Macau will grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 24.7 percent, reaching USD 45.1 billion (MOP 360 billion) in 2014. PwC’s outlook for the global casino market forecasts that Asia’s and Australia’s fast-growing gaming industries will account for nearly as much of the world market as the United States in four-years time. For the whole 2010, the consulting firm predicts that Macau’s casino operators will pocket around MOP 180 billion (USD 22.4 billion). For the eleven months through to November, Macau’s total casino gross gaming revenue reached MOP 169.46 billion, a 56.9 percent growth year-on-year, according the official data from the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau. Next year, according to PwC, casino revenue in Macau will grow to a total of USD 28.3 billion (MOP 226 billion), climbing to USD 34.2 (MOP 273 billion) the year after. By 2013, the industry should be posting revenues of USD 39.9 billion (over MOP 319 billion), before doubling this year’s predictions by 2014. While the 2.8 percent decline in total global spending on casino gaming in 2009 masks a slump of 12.2 percent in 2009 in Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), and of 3.4 percent in the US, the Asia Pacific “has hardly paused for breath,” points out the report. The Asia Pacific, which includes Macau, Singapore, South Korea and Australia, registered a modest slowdown in spending growth to 7.4 percent in 2009, “before rebounding back into double-digits with growth of nearly 50 percent in 2010”.
