Key Findings
  • Imposing hefty duties on handset imports is a viable option to foster local industry growth. However, the absence of a fully developed production value chain (i.e., infrastructure, transportation, technology, labor, etc.) can translate into domestically-made handsets that are more expensive than similar imported products in a scenario with lower import tariffs, to the detriment of consumers, particularly those in low income segments.
  • The reason the adoption of smartphones, and particularly LTE-enabled smartphones, is important is the positive impact these devices can have on ARPS levels. In Latin America, the higher price of LTE-capable smartphones remains a major inhibitor to mass LTE adoption. The deployment of LTE networks is in full swing in most major Latin American markets, but service adoption remains low. Mobile operators are under a lot of pressure to offer LTE-capable smartphones at affordable prices, to get a critical mass of subscribers and more quickly recoup their LTE investments.
  • It is crucial for mobile operators to be able to expeditiously procure enough smartphones to support the rollout of new technologies (e.g., LTE). In Venezuela, for instance, the adoption of LTE services has been muted, mainly because of the unavailability of LTE-capable smartphones. In Ecuador, if not revised, government-imposed quotas on mobile handsets imports will negatively affect LTE rollout efforts by the country’s largest mobile operators Claro and Movistar, which were recently granted additional spectrum for the deployment of their LTE networks.
  • Regulators across the region are increasingly resorting to banning the selling of carrier-locked handsets and forcing carriers to unlock all previously sold, with the goal of fueling competition at the service layer. Banning the selling of locked handsets in itself doesn’t change the structure of the market, but it helps level the playing field in the mobile segment. In Peru, the SIM lock removal, coupled with improvements in the mobile number porting process, has helped smaller operators Entel and Bitel to steal subscribers from incumbent operators Movistar and Claro.
  • In Colombia, the removal of minimum contract periods (handset subsidies) has resulted in a shift to lower smartphone price bands, as consumers are unable to pay the full price of high-end and premium devices. This has negatively affected smartphone brands that are more dependent on carrier subsidies (e.g., Apple).

The Report Bolivia: DTH Launches and Fiber-Optic Backbone Rollout to Drive Video and Data Services provides information on pricing, market analysis, shares, forecast, and company profiles for key industry participants. - MarketResearchReports.biz

‘Bolivia: DTH Launches and Fiber-Optic Backbone Rollout to Drive Video and Data Services,’ a new Country Intelligence Report by Pyramid Research, offers a precise, incisive profile of Bolivia’s mobile and fixed telecommunications and pay-TV markets based on comprehensive proprietary data and insights from our research in the Bolivia market. Published annually, this presentation-quality, executive-level report provides detailed analysis of the near-term opportunities, competitive dynamics and evolution of demand by service type and technology/platform across the fixed telephony, broadband, mobile and pay-TV sectors, as well as a review of key regulatory trends.

View Full Report at http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis/279356

Key Findings
  • In 2014, Bolivia was the 15th largest telecom services market in Latin America, with estimated revenue of US$1.0bn or 2.0% of GDP, a 7.5% increase on the previous year.
  • We expect to see overall service revenue grow at a 7.8% CAGR from 2014 to 2019. The fixed/mobile revenue split will remain inclined toward the mobile segment. With Bolivia’s expensive and slow fixed broadband services, 3G has become an attractive alternative, and users have turned to mobile data services for Internet access.
  • The top three operators — Entel Bolivia, Tigo Bolivia, and Viva Bolivia, which provide mobile services — accounted for 73.8% of overall service revenue in 2014. As mobile users significantly outnumbered fixed access lines, MNOs have the largest share within the Bolivian telecom services markets.
  • The pay-TV market in Bolivia had a household penetration rate of 10.9% in 2014. Although cable will remain the dominant technology throughout the forecast period, DTH/satellite will gain space, mainly driven by the recent launch of Bolivia’s first satellite, Tupac Katari.

View Full Report at http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis/283325

Key Findings

  • With revenue of US$2.9bn in 2014, 4.8% of GDP, the telecom services market in Guatemala is the largest in Central America. Over the next five years, we expect overall telecom services revenue to grow at a 3.4% CAGR, reaching $3.4bn by 2019. The mobile voice and data segments alone generated 66.1% of total revenue for the segment in 2014, while the fixed broadband Internet, voice and pay-TV segments accounted for the remaining 33.9%.
  • By year-end 2014, mobile operators Movistar and Claro reported a combined net loss of 774,809 mobile subscriptions in Guatemala. This disconnection is the result of operators’ internal policies to clean up their bases and improve their current ARPS levels.
  • Pyramid Research projects Guatemala closed 2014 with an estimated 2.6m fixed access lines, with PSTN lines accounting for 72.3% of the total, a 3.5% decline from the previous year. Despite the fact that DSL will continue to be the most adopted broadband technology between 2014 and 2019, we expect cable to expand at a faster pace, as Tigo has announced plans to invest in upgrading and increasing its network capacity in Guatemala.

Tackling the Russian Crisis: Sound Operational Performance Keeps Mobile Operators Focus on Data Services

The Report Tackling the Russian Crisis: Sound Operational Performance Keeps Mobile Operators Focus on Data Services provides information on pricing, market analysis, shares, forecast, and company profiles for key industry participants. - MarketResearchReports.biz

‘Tackling the Russian Crisis: Sound Operational Performance Keeps Mobile Operators’ Focus on Data Services,’ a Telecom Insider Report by Pyramid Research, highlights the impacts of the economic crisis on the Russian telecom market. The report discusses the impact of the economic crisis on the Russian telecom market (mobile telephony market) and then its presents the strategy adopted by the leading mobile operators MTS, MegaFon, VimpelCom and Tele2, to drive service adoption, device adoption and maintaining financial stability. The report concludes with a summary of key findings and a set of recommendations.

View Full Report at http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis/283847

Key Findings

  • Mobile operators will feel the impact of the crisis on top line service revenue. Though we expect top line service revenue growth to continue to be positive, our post-crisis service revenue forecasts for 2015 are 5.9% lower for 2015 than our pre-crisis forecast, a $850m impact.
  • Given high levels of competition that pre-date the crisis, the Russian market has moved decisively to voice and data bundles, which are helping operators increase adoption of data services and push up smartphone penetration. Operators are offering voice is largely as a complement to data bundles in all-inclusive and/or minute allowances. This practice is encouraging voice-only customers to test data.
  • Although the crisis has pushed up the price of certain luxury devices by as much as 70%, demand for smartphone and other data devices remains strong. In response to the crisis, vendors are seeing a shift in demand to more affordable and own-branded devices with the number of devices sold in the under US$300 category growing significantly over the last year. Vendors with a strong focus on emerging markets and value pricing, such as AlcatelOneTouch and Micromax, have done well in the current environment.
  • Handset market commercial practices such as reverse subsidies, in place for years in Russia, are now becoming the rule in light of rising retail prices for premium brand devices. These practices arose from operators’ inability to offer device subsidies in Russia.
  • Despite being hit hard by the currency devaluation, particularly in Q4 2014, operators have maintained their pre-crisis capex plans virtually untouched. Strong fundamentals for all four operators, as well as financial measures taken to mitigate the volatility in the price of the rouble, have enabled operators to move forward with planned upgrades to 3G/4G and geographic expansion.
  • Russia’s major mobile operators’ sound operational performance to date will play a decisive role in their efforts  to tackle the crisis and enable them to continue focusing on 3G/4G network expansion and data adoption, despite the crisis.

View Full Report at http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis/283850

Key Findings
  • The Japanese telecom services market recorded total telecom service revenue of $137.3bn in 2014, registering a year-over-year decline of 7.2% in US$ terms (revenue was up 0.7% in local currency). Japan is the second largest telecom market in the Asia Pacific region trailing behind China, which reported telecom services revenue of $189.8bn in 2014.
  • Increased investments by telcos in LTE (primarily NTT and KDDI which accounted for 69.3% of the country’s total mobile subscriptions) set the stage for growth in mobile data over the forecast. Going forward, we expect NTT and KDDI to lead the market during 2015-20, although KDDI will lose some market share to NTT.
  • Japan’s broadband penetration stood at 28.5% in 2014, higher than most of the markets in the region including India, China and Taiwan.
  • The Japanese pay-TV market generated $8.7bn in service revenue in 2014. With the year-end 2014 household penetration of 37.4%, or 19.3m subscriptions.

Asia Pacific: Regulators and Opex Pressures Push Mobile Operators into Infrastructure Sharing - Recent Press Release Updates

The Report Asia Pacific: Regulators and Opex Pressures Push Mobile Operators into Infrastructure Sharing provides information on pricing, market analysis, shares, forecast, and company profiles for key industry participants. - MarketResearchReports.biz

‘Asia-Pacific: Regulators and Opex Pressures Push Mobile Operators into Infrastructure Sharing,’ a Telecom Insider Report by Pyramid Research, analyzes the different types of infrastructure sharing setups prevalent in the Asia-Pacific region. It examines the factors driving telecom operators to share infrastructure, the obstacles to doing so and the threat of anticompetitive outcomes, and a brief comparison of Asia-Pacific with other regions. The report offers information on the prevalent forms infrastructure sharing takes, on recent deals involving passive and active sharing, on deals involving tower offloading by operators, and on the major tower companies in the region. The Insider provides three case studies to illustrate the various drivers and benefits involved in infrastructure sharing.

View Full Report at http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis/289952

Key Findings


  • Mobile infrastructure sharing can help telecom operators reduce their operating expenses by 20-30% and capital expenditures by as much as 40%. However, factors such as the physical landscape and the stage of mobile network deployment can make it difficult to forecast savings in absolute terms.
  • In Asia-Pacific, most infrastructure sharing deals have been voluntary, although there are a few countries such as China where the regulator, aiming to optimize use of scarce resources, has made the sharing of passive infrastructure mandatory. In other countries – Hong Kong, Singapore – the regulator intervenes by directing operators to share infrastructure if overall it benefits citizens or the environment.
  • Passive infrastructure sharing has remained more common in Asia-Pacific mainly because of its cost benefits, its relatively lower complexity and the unwillingness of bigger players to share their networks with smaller players.
  • Active sharing is gaining momentum, driven by the need of LTE deployments for huge investments and the obligations, mainly pertaining to coverage, that governments impose through spectrum licenses.
  • Tower offloading is a growing trend in Asia-Pacific: operators are selling or spinning off their tower assets to focus on their core businesses and to reduce costs.

Tackling the Russian Crisis: Sound Operational Performance Keeps Mobile Operators Focus on Data Services

The Report Tackling the Russian Crisis: Sound Operational Performance Keeps Mobile Operators Focus on Data Services provides information on pricing, market analysis, shares, forecast, and company profiles for key industry participants. - MarketResearchReports.biz

‘Tackling the Russian Crisis: Sound Operational Performance Keeps Mobile Operators’ Focus on Data Services,’ a Telecom Insider Report by Pyramid Research, highlights the impacts of the economic crisis on the Russian telecom market. The report discusses the impact of the economic crisis on the Russian telecom market (mobile telephony market) and then its presents the strategy adopted by the leading mobile operators MTS, MegaFon, VimpelCom and Tele2, to drive service adoption, device adoption and maintaining financial stability. The report concludes with a summary of key findings and a set of recommendations.

View Full Report at http://www.marketresearchreports.biz/analysis/283847
 
Key Findings

Mobile operators will feel the impact of the crisis on top line service revenue. Though we expect top line service revenue growth to continue to be positive, our post-crisis service revenue forecasts for 2015 are 5.9% lower for 2015 than our pre-crisis forecast, a $850m impact.
Given high levels of competition that pre-date the crisis, the Russian market has moved decisively to voice and data bundles, which are helping operators increase adoption of data services and push up smartphone penetration. Operators are offering voice is largely as a complement to data bundles in all-inclusive and/or minute allowances. This practice is encouraging voice-only customers to test data.
Although the crisis has pushed up the price of certain luxury devices by as much as 70%, demand for smartphone and other data devices remains strong. In response to the crisis, vendors are seeing a shift in demand to more affordable and own-branded devices with the number of devices sold in the under US$300 category growing significantly over the last year. Vendors with a strong focus on emerging markets and value pricing, such as AlcatelOneTouch and Micromax, have done well in the current environment.
Handset market commercial practices such as reverse subsidies, in place for years in Russia, are now becoming the rule in light of rising retail prices for premium brand devices. These practices arose from operators’ inability to offer device subsidies in Russia.
Despite being hit hard by the currency devaluation, particularly in Q4 2014, operators have maintained their pre-crisis capex plans virtually untouched. Strong fundamentals for all four operators, as well as financial measures taken to mitigate the volatility in the price of the rouble, have enabled operators to move forward with planned upgrades to 3G/4G and geographic expansion.
Russia’s major mobile operators’ sound operational performance to date will play a decisive role in their efforts  to tackle the crisis and enable them to continue focusing on 3G/4G network expansion and data adoption, despite the crisis.

Key Findings

Cote d’Ivoire was the 15th largest telecom services market in Africa and the Middle East, with estimated revenue of US$1.6bn or 5.5% of GDP. Mobile voice was the most important growth driver, generating $199m more revenue in 2014 than in 2013.
Competition in the Ivorian telecom market has significantly increased over the past decade. The top three operators, Orange Cote d'Ivoire, MTN Cote d'Ivoire and Moov Cote d’Ivoire account for a combined 95.2% of telecom services revenue in the country. However, the likely merger of smaller operators could create a stronger fourth player that can more effectively compete against the top three.
Operators focus on modernizing and upgrading their networks in line with government’s efforts to improve QoS coupled with market transition to 3G and later to LTE will present opportunities to network vendors.
