Sector: Networks & Infrastructure
The UAE's telecom market generated $5.8bn in service revenue in 2008. Since the market has now caught up with those of the developed world in terms of service penetration, it can look forward to healthy but not dramatic growth over the next five years, during which we expect total revenue to increase at a CAGR of 4.1%. The fastest significant growth segments will be broadband Internet and mobile data, although mobile voice will remain the single largest contributor to total revenue. A key change over the next five years is the switch from copper to fiber fixed-line infrastructure that is currently underway and due to be completed by 2011. As well as providing a boost to broadband revenue, the change will enable significant growth in the pay- TV and fixed VoIP sectors for the first time.
