Macau, March 28, 2011 — Steve Wynn, Chairman & CEO of Wynn Resorts and Wynn Macau, Limited joins the Barron's annual roster of the world's 30 best CEOs this year. Bruce Rockowitz, CEO of Li & Fung and an independent non-executive Director of Wynn Macau, Limited is again listed among the 30 top CEOs on the Barron's list.

Barron's also recognizes Steve Wynn's success at 'bringing some Vegas verve to Macau' since he became CEO of Wynn Resorts in 2002.
"There are some CEOs who excel at making money for themselves and others who have a knack for enriching fellow shareholders," wrote Andrew Bary, a Barron's columnist. "Steve Wynn is an investor's friend."
Steve Wynn is widely credited with transforming Las Vegas into a world renowned resort and convention destination. He envisioned and built The Mirage, Treasure Island and Bellagio—boldly conceiving resorts that set progressively higher standards for quality, luxury and entertainment.
