Should Williams consider his position?
Article Abstract:
Crown Casino Chmn Lloyd Williams attempted a management rights buyback in Nov 1997 to decrease the casino's debt/equity ratio to an acceptable limit set by the Victoria Casino and Gaming Authority. Williams has decreased $120 million in costs by early 1998 through employee reduction. Some industry analysts believe a replacement for Williams could bode well for Crown Casino.
