The telecommunications market in Guatemala generated $2.4bn in 2011, of which the mobile segment contributed 69%. Going forward, the market will expand at a CAGR of 4.6% to reach $3.0bn by 2016, when pay-TV, fixed broadband and mobile data will be the main contributors. Regional operator Claro has launched quadruple-play services to take advantage of the low penetration levels in broadband and pay-TV.
On the other hand, we expect further declines in circuit-switched revenue and dial-up Internet, victims of fixed-mobile substitution and broadband adoption, respectively. In mobile services, we see strong growth in mobile data (a 9.7% CAGR) due to a rise in mobile broadband and content. Broadband penetration remains low, but with enough potential to grow in the coming years.
