Communications Market in the Philippines
The Philippines has a chaotic and, at times, contradictory telecoms market where most services are nominally deregulated yet strong competition is often lacking. While consolidation has created a duopoly in the mobile sector, the mobile service market remains competitive. Conversely, the fixed-line market has become stagnant, in part because the local loop remains bundled. The nascent market for datacom and broadband services is slowly becoming more competitive as operators build out their networks and tap new revenue streams. This 22-page report takes a comprehensive look at the Filipino 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.
