Communications Market in Nicaragua
Nicaragua and Costa Rica remain the only markets in Central America that have yet to open their basic services market to competition, although current plans call for liberalization at the beginning of 2005. The mobile sector has changed dramatically, as a new wave of consolidation tackles the market. Third entrant América Móvil (PCS Digital) recently completed its purchase of state-owned operator Enitel, and Telefónica is poised to take over former monopolist BellSouth, ushering in a new competitive landscape. This 21-page report takes a comprehensive look at the Nicaraguan market, covering immediate issues facing the market, in the context of the political, economic, regulatory, and competitive environments. It includes fixed communications predictions, mobile communications predictions, vendor relationships, and risk assessment.
