Bid for Casino Resort License in Japan Elevates Investments in Resorts

In Japan, three casino resort licenses are expected to be authorised in the coming months. Osaka and Yokohama are the two leading candidate cities applied for the license.
Morgan Stanley, the financial services firm, expressed concerns that the intense bidding will elevate each property’s total investment, and therefore, extend the time required for the companies to simply break even.
Officials from Yokohama city reported that their request for information (RFI) phase revealed several casino operators are ready to invest nearly $12 billion in a resort complex.
Yokohama is a preferred destination, as the large city is near the Tokyo capital. But Osaka is the frontrunner for MGM and Las Vegas Sands, the two casino operators considered the favourites for licensure by gaming industry analysts.
