Casino gross gaming revenue (GGR) in Macau in November rose 14.4 percent year-on-year, to nearly MOP21.09 billion (US$2.63 billion), showed data released on Monday by the city’s Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau.
Casino GGR in the last month fell by 12.5 percent sequentially, as October – at MOP24.09 billion – had marked the best monthly performance since January 2020, just before the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic.
Banking institution Citigroup suggested in a recent memo that Macau gaming industry was showing resilience, with “strength” in the mass market segment continuing in November.
November’s official GGR tally took the Macau sector’s aggregate so far this year to circa MOP226.52 billion, an 8.6-percent increase from the prior-year period, showed government data.
The Macau government has forecast the city’s casino GGR will reach MOP236 billion for full-year 2026, according to its fiscal budget plan for next year, announced last month.
That would represent a 3.5-percent increase from the government’s revised June forecast for full-year 2025 GGR, at MOP228 billion.
