M2 - Thu Mar 13, 4:23AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/zx4chm/global_online) has announced the addition of the "Global Online Gambling & Betting Market 2014" report to their offering. Global Online Gambling and Betting Market 2014 depicts the latest trends and developments in the field. Among the findings of the reports researchers is that the online gambling and betting segment is increasing, enhanced by the spread of smartphones and tablet computers. The authors observe: while land-based lottery and casinos still dominate the gambling scene, online real-money gambling and betting are growing rapidly. The regulatory landscape on online gambling and betting is varied. The majority of Western European countries have some laws in place to channel online gambling and betting. In North America and major Asian countries online real-money games are yet awaiting progress in regulation. In the USA, online gambling is legal only in three states and in many Asian countries gambling and betting is allowed only in casino resorts. The spread of online betting and gambling is forcing governments to act to regulate. The global online gambling market has a current value estimated at a medium double digit number in billions of Euros, with growth expected between 7 and 10% annually in the next few years. Trends in online gambling and betting. The major trends in online gambling and betting globally are mobile and social gambling. Mobile gambling is expected to grow at double-digit rates and to reach over 40% of the total online gambling market by 2018, as the number of mobile gambling users increases by a hundred million. The leading online gambling and betting companies worldwide include PokerStars, Bwin.Party, William Hill Online, each of which annually generate online revenues of over EUR 0.5 billion. Regional variations in legislation and acceptance of online gambling and betting In North America, online gambling was legalized in three US states by early 2014, with online gambling revenues surging to millions in the first months of legal operation. In the largest Latin American market, Brazil, gambling and betting is forbidden except for horse racing. However, offshore gambling websites are popular among Brazilian gamblers, who spend several hundreds of EUR million annually on offshore sports betting sites. Europe has been a leader in adopting regulation regarding online gambling, but as the activity spreads, new measures are being enacted. In France, online gambling and betting has been legal since 2010, but many gamblers turn to illegal sites. For example, a quarter of poker players chose to bet on unregulated networks. Italy has one of the most advanced regulatory arrangements regarding online gambling in Europe. Total online gambling revenue in Italy recently reached a high number in hundreds of millions of Euros, with poker constituting the largest segment. Regulation of online gambling and betting in Germany and Russia lag some of their neighbours. Progress in online betting regulation in Germany is expected in 2014, as several operators have applied for the first online sports betting licenses. Online gambling and betting is spreading in the Asia-Pacific region. In Australia, which leads the world in terms of per person gambling, online sports betting and gambling has been growing by over 30% annually, while the growth of the total gambling market does not exceed 5%. Online gambling is only starting to emerge in Africa. The first regulated online gambling website in Kenya was launched in 2013. In South Africa, online gambling awaits legalization in 2014.

Betting & Gaming Market Report 2013
M2 - Fri Mar 07, 2:47AM CST
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/6l2rw4/betting_and) has announced the addition of the "Betting & Gaming Market Report 2013" report to their offering. The betting and gaming market in the UK has declined in terms of consumer expenditure over the past 5-year period between 2008 and 2012, and grew by 2.7% in 2012. This decline is largely due to the recession, which saw many consumer markets struggle in 2009; however, the years that followed showed strong performance within the gambling industry. The market is divided into the different type of game or bet that a consumer can play, and is broken down into the following sectors: lotteries, casinos, licensed bingos, gaming machines, football pools and bookmaking. The primary consumers within all sectors of the market are males, with the only exception being that of the licensed bingo sector which is most popular among female consumers. The growth in online bingo in recent years has expanded this market sector, along with all online areas of the industry. Remote gambling has become increasingly widespread, thus making the market more accessible, with consumers able to place bets at the click of a button from wherever they are at that moment in time. The influx of smartphone and tablet technology is aiding this area of the market, as well as facilitating growth especially among the youth market. In recent years, betting shops have taken over an increasing share of high street locations, moving into more desirable locations and buying vacant retail space from failed retailers. The popularity of fixed-odds betting terminals within the retail domain has seen touch-screen machines accounting for a growing proportion of total retail revenue, driving the demand for these terminals, despite the popularity of the online market. However, the presence of the betting and gaming market has faced criticism from the Government, which is calling for local councils to be given greater power in deciding where bookmakers are located. The introduction of machine gaming duty and the proposed measure of a point of consumption tax will potentially reduce earning power of the market leaders in the coming years. Just as the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games are believed to have boosted the market, upcoming events such as the FIFA 2014 Footballs World Cup and the Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games, are likely to encourage market growth over the 5-year forecast period, with the authors estimating that the market will rise by 18.4% between 2013 and 2017. With social media and Near-Field-Communication (NFC) technology expected to be exploited further by the industry in the coming years, the online sector is expected to grow further despite the legislative restrictions imposed on remote gambling.

The global industry for casinos and gaming holds down a current net worth of over $125 billion.

More casino openings are expected in other parts of Asia in the near term. Singapore, with its two mega-casino developments, has already made a significant splash to the extent of rivaling Las Vegas. However, Chinese Government activities, along with other Asian countries, limit domestic access to their casinos and thus these casinos are highly reliant on international and particularly VIP tourist gaming revenue. The industry at the moment is in
