2016 and Key Industry Statistics

2. ABSTRACT
The global telecoms sector in 2016 will see continued focus on the underlying trends of M2M, Big
Data Analytics, Cloud Computing and the over-arching Internet of Things. Telcos generally will
focus more heavily on customer retention and churn in the face of dwindling revenues, while also
improving mobile and fixed broadband infrastructure for the future. 4G LTE deployment is a key
trend around much of the world and in appropriate markets there is also a keen investment in
fixed broadband based on fibre. Over 140 countries now have a National Broadband Network
(NBN) policy or plan.
Many of the operators in the emerging markets will focus primarily on mobile infrastructure with
lower priced smart phones becoming a dominant trend. Mobile broadband infrastructure is
becoming increasingly important in the emerging markets of Middle East, Asia, Africa and Latin
America, as the large populations place more and more demand on existing infrastructure.
This report provides a summary of key trends for the global telecoms sector as well as an
overview of developments at a regional level. This valuable report also includes recent key
statistics for the overall global telecoms industry as well as statistics for the mobile, mobile
broadband, Internet, satellite and fixed broadband sectors. It also includes a ranking of the top

3. ABSTRACT
Latest developments:
In 2016 Africa continues to see strong growth in mobile broadband use and data
traffic, the result of several factors which are providing a beneficial environment for
investment and customer take-up of services. Mobile network operators in Latin
America are gearing up for further investment in network infrastructure in 2016 as
customer demand for mobile data reaches new heights. With some 3.6 billion people
across Asia using mobile phones; the region is already rapidly advancing in its
exploiting of mobile data/wireless broadband services. In the developed markets like
the US, mobile subscriber growth has slowed due to high penetration levels but
mobile data use remains strong, in line with the fast development of LTE networks and
the high take-up of smartphones. The European mobile market also has reached such
high penetration levels that there is little room for further growth in the voice sector.
The European broadband market is also being transformed by emerging technologies.
