Gaming in Guyana, Suriname and Haiti
Guyana, Suriname and Haiti represent the least developed gaming markets in South America and the Caribbean, with very limited offerings in their capitals and main cities. Guyana, South America only English-speaking country with 800,000 inhabitants, has its casinos in Georgetown under Guyana Gaming Authority regulation. The recent discovery of enormous offshore oil deposits in the Stabroek block has made Guyana the world fastest-growing economy in recent years, with GDP multiplying more than fourfold between 2019 and 2023, generating new high-end gaming demand the local market has not yet been able to fully satisfy. Suriname, a former Dutch colony with 600,000 inhabitants, has its casinos in Paramaribo under local regulation. Haiti, the Americas poorest country, has a very limited gaming industry in Port-au-Prince, affected by political instability and the humanitarian crisis the country has faced since the 2010 earthquake.
