Telecommunications 2015: A review of South Africa's telecommunications sector
South Africa has one of the largest telecommunications markets in Africa and is considered to be the most advanced in terms of technology deployed and services offered.
However, fixed-line operators continue to deal with dwindling voice revenue and declining user bases; the mobile industry has also started to feel the pinch after enjoying years of strong growth and healthy profits. Under strain from slower growth, lower mobile termination rates and price competition, cost-cutting and consolidation have emerged as key themes, which are set to alter the communications landscape in the years ahead.
Creamer Media’s Telecommunications 2015 Report reviews South Africa’s telecommunications market and the major companies operating in the sector. The report provides information on the country’s voice and data communications, and corporate activity in the sector. It also provides an overview of the regulatory environment, as well as policy developments in the sector, among other aspects.
This report is a summary of information published in Engineering News and Mining Weekly, as well as of information available in the public domain, and does not purport to provide an analysis of market trends.
