Chile - Broadband and Broadcasting Market - Overview, Statistics and Forecasts
Paul Budde Communication Pty Ltd, June 2011, Pages: 19
Chile’s broadband market is one of the most developed in Latin America. For many years – in fact, from the early days of broadband until 2009 – Chile retained the regional leadership in terms of fixed broadband penetration. Slow growth in 2010, however, has relegated it to third place, after Uruguay and Argentina. The slowdown was partly due to the effects of the devastating earthquake at the start of the year, partly to the mobile broadband boom, and partly to the fact that saturation has been reached in the urban middle- and upper-income segments. Due to weak broadband competition, the government is considering the establishment of a wholesale telecom infrastructure provider. In terms of broadband speeds, Chile is the regional leader, with a mean download speed of 6.45Mb/s (as of June 2011) – which, though high for Latin America, is still low compared with the rest of the world. This report provides an overview of Chile’s Internet, broadband, and pay-TV markets, accompanied by relevant statistics, analyses, and broadband scenario forecasts for the years 2015 and 2020.
