Macau casino revenue growth accelerated last year as the world’s largest gambling hub, which already takes in about seven times as much as the Las Vegas Strip, widened its lead.
Gaming revenue from the six operators of China’s only legal casinos rose 18.6 percent to 360.75 billion patacas ($45.2 billion) last year, Macau’s Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau said today. That compares with the average estimate of a 18 percent growth from five analysts compiled by Bloomberg News.
