Brazil - Telecom Market Trends, Key Statistics and Regulatory Overview
Paul Budde Communication Pty Ltd, Feb 2012, Pages: 15
Synopsis
Brazil’s telecom revenues are expected to reach US$120 billion in 2012. As in other Latin American countries, fixed-line revenues account for a decreasing portion of Brazil’s total telecom revenues, while the share of mobile, pay TV, and Internet/data revenues continues to grow.
With the spending power of Brazilian consumers on the rise and the upcoming 2014 World Cup and 2016 Olympic Games (both being held in Brazil), we can expect strong demand for fixed and mobile broadband, mobile telephony, and other wireless products such as smart phones and mobile applications.
The Brazilian government has been taking steps to reduce mobile, broadband, and pay TV tariffs in order to increase penetration. It has also issued a law offering tax breaks for new telecom investments.
This report provides an overview of Brazil’s telecom market and regulatory environment, accompanied by statistical data, analyses, and outlook.
Key developments:
Brazil’s GDP is projected to grow 3%-3.5% in 2012 and 4%-5% in 2013; investments in Brazilian telecom industries are set to reach US$41 billion over the next five years; new universalisation goals have been approved and included it in the revised fixed-line contract renewals; the cable TV market has been opened to foreign investors.
Companies covered in this report include:
Telefônica Brasil/Vivo, Oi, Embratel, GVT, TIM Brasil, Intelig, CTBC/Algar Telecom, Sercomtel, Nextel Brasil,.
