Business World Philippines
|January 29, 2026
THE gaming industry's growth could stagnate this year in the wake of stiffer regulation imposed by the government, S&P Global said.
“(T)he Philippines may see (its) GGR (gross gaming revenue) dip with declining visitors and regulatory headwinds on online gaming,” S&P Global associate director Flora Chang said in a report on Wednesday.
In the third quarter of 2025, the industry's GGR slipped 0.11% to P94.51 billion, according to the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corp.
