New Fixed Networks research report from Business Monitor International is now available from Fast Market Research
[USPRwire, Mon Feb 09 2015] BMI believes that relatively low mobile penetration rate on the Peruvian market highlights its potential for growth. The entrance of five new operators to the mobile market - Viettel, Entel and MVNO's Virgin Mobile, AT&T and Falabella - will add to the growth of mobile market. Viettel has already made strong headway in breaking into the market in its first six months of operating. Spectrum auction, due to be held in 2015, will add impetus to developing LTE services. In the wireline sector, BMI is also bullish for growth as Azteca's Fibre Optic Backbone Network project should allow for a larger proportion of population access to broadband services. While Peru currently trails many of its regional peers for telecoms penetration, its large market size is attracting foreign investment and should help to encourage rapid growth.
* The mobile market contracted in terms of subscriptions in 2013, down 1.9% to 29.173mn, but the underlying trend of moderate growth remains in-tact, with the net loss specifically derived from inactive prepaid subscription discounting.
* Movistar reported in October 2014 that it had reached nearly 100,000 4G LTE subscriptions since the launch of the services in January.
* Three mobile virtual network operators (MVNO), AT&T, Virgin and Chile's retail group Falabella, have expressed interest in entering the Peruvian market. BMI believes that the three operators are likely to finalise their agreements in Q115 and launch operations in H215.
* New entrant Viettel has acquired 15,000 in its first few weeks of launch in July 2014, the company has said it had enrolled 400,000 users by December.
* Pay-TV services in Peruvian homes reached 40.6% at end March, up 2.9 percentage points (pp) year-on-year (y-o-y), according to a study by the country's statistics bureau Instituto Nacional de Estadística e Informática (INEI).
