Various reports indicate that Las Vegas Sands Corp would like to borrow up to $7 billion in loans.
"The money will go toward expanding and refinancing some loans for the Venetian (Resort & Casino) in Macau," one person told Dow Jones Newswires. "Banks interested in financing have been invited to tour the Venetian property later next week for a soft sell."
Various media outlets say they have learned of the plan by people close to the deal, although LVS has not disclosed anything related to the matter to the stock exchange.
Dow Jones Newswires says Citigroup, Lehman Brothers and Goldman Sachs are coordinators for the loans.
