In the US today, there are 160 Indian casinos that account for $25 billion in revenue. Indian casinos are regulated by the National Indian Gaming Commission (NIGC) under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act  (IGRA), which set rules defining eligible Indian tribes, their relationship with states, and requirements for oversight of gambling operations. The challenges faced by Indian casinos are: Gambling revenue is affected by the health of the economy, including the growth of personal income. Because of high fixed-costs, the profitability of gambling operations depends on a high volume of customers. Companies have large capital investments in facilities and gaming equipment and usually a large amount of debt. Gambling companies routinely spend more than 10 percent of annual revenue on capital investments. Competition from charitable organizations, schools, and churches hold weekly bingo games, promote raffles, and sponsor casino nights, and many advertise in gambling publications. Controlling cash flow - gambling operations result in large inflows of cash, requiring special controls. With experience and understanding, Computeration offers financial and business management services for tribal casinos.
