France: Country Intelligence Report

Summary

"France: Country Intelligence Report", a new Country Intelligence Report, provides an executive-level overview of the telecommunications market in France today, with detailed forecasts of key indicators up to 2023. Published annually, the report provides a 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 segments, as well as a review of key regulatory trends.

France’s telecom and pay-TV services market will grow from €33.4 billion (US$40.6 billion) in 2018 to €38.2 billion (US$46.5 billion) by 2023 at a CAGR of 2.7% in terms of € (2.8% in US$) over 2018-2023, supported by growth in the mobile data and fixed broadband segments. Fixed broadband was the largest revenue-contributing segment in 2018. Mobile data revenue will expand at the fastest CAGR of 7.2% in euros (7.3% in US$) over 2018-2023, reaching €12.9 billion (US$15.7 billion) by 2023, supported by growing consumption of online videos and social media applications on mobile devices in line with rising mobile internet subscriptions and expanding the 4G network. France’s pay-TV market will decline at a CAGR of 0.1% in euros (0.04% in US$) given the drop in DTH subscriptions and overall pay-TV ARPU.
