Macau operations are of key importance for casino players, as they account for a significant portion of overall revenue and EBITDA. While Macau casino industry has witnessed tremendous growth in the past, it has seen a massive decline since 2015. This can primarily be attributed to the government’s anti-graft measures. A wave of high-profile arrests of senior Chinese officials has hurt the VIP business of Macau casinos, as players preferred to maintain a low profile. Furthermore, a weakening economy, visa restrictions and a smoking ban added to the woes for casino operators in the region. Moreover, Beijing wants Macau to diversify its economy, which is now largely dependent on gambling. Indeed, casinos account for a significant portion of the local government revenues.
