(Macau).- Macau will continue to allow the operation of 50 junkets in 2025, with the cap unchanged from this year.
The cap was announced by the secretary for economy and finance late last month, with Venetian Macau, S.A. and SJM Resorts, S.A. each allowed 12.
Both Galaxy Casino, S.A. and Wynn Resorts (Macau), S.A. will be allowed to operate with five.
Melco Resorts (Macau), S.A. and MGM Grand Paradise, S.A. are allowed to have eight partners each.
However, as of June this year, less than half of the approved number of junket operators, namely 22, were active, according to the Gaming Inspection and Coordination Bureau, or DICJ in Portuguese.
That’s up from the beginning of the year, when there were 18 – half the number registered at the start of 2023.
At that time, there were 36 junket operators operating when the new junket law came into force.
In a separate update, the number of junket partners will be capped at 250, with the decision announced late last week – the same number as this year.
As of April this year, there were seven partners registered with the casino regulator.
