The Story

China’s decision to support the development of horse racing and regulated lotteries in Hainan should not affect Macau, according to international brokerage Union Gaming.

 

Union Gaming has listed several reasons why Macau will remain supreme. 

First, Union Gaming analyst Grant Govertsen believes that legalization of casinos will be far-fetched, considering that gambling remains illegal in mainland China. And even if legalization of casinos will be implemented in Hainan, Macau’s Big 6 concessionaires won’t be affected that much. Second, mass and VIP gamblers will still choose Macau for its convenient location.
