The Nicaraguan telecom market generated $502m in 2008, and it’s expected to grow at a 6.3% CAGR over the next five years. The sectors that will drive the expansion are fixed broadband and mobile services. While there’s opportunity in the underpenetrated Nicaraguan market, adoption will be curbed by the absence of a real competitive challenge to telecom incumbent Claro. We see opportunities for this company in the market, since targeted offerings for the low-income segment of the population could be profitable.

In the mobile segment, we have seen limited expansion in points of sale of prepaid cards for both Claro and Movistar, as both operators have focused their resources on penetrating urban areas. On the fixed side, Claro has focused its efforts on penetrating high-income segments with fixed telephony, broadband and pay-TV.
