"Sub-Saharan Africa continues to hold considerable potential for mobile services revenue growth due to the growing population, low mobile penetration and strong demand for data."
Operators’ investments in network expansions and LTE deployments will lead to an increase in mobile services take-up and revenue in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). The fixed broadband segment will also develop during the forecast period, albeit from a much smaller base.
This report and associated data annex provide:
- a 5-year forecast of around 200 mobile and fixed KPIs for SSA, as a whole and for 11 key countries
- an in-depth analysis of the trends, drivers and forecast assumptions for each type of mobile and fixed service, and for key countries
- an overview of operator strategies and country-specific topics, in order to highlight similarities and differences by means of a cross-country comparison
- a summary of results and key implications for mobile and fixed operators.
