Telecoms infrastructure supporting the development of a digital economy

Turkey’s telecommunications market exhibited its resilience despite recent economic uncertainty by maintaining positive growth. This trend will continue as the market evolves under technological, demographic and market forces.

Regulatory reform implemented as part of the European Union (EU) accession program continues to develop the market and improve competition. Despite declining teledensity levels, competition is heating up, most recently with the launch of naked DSL offerings in early 2011. Current take up levels point to strong growth in 2012.

Although ADSL still represents the majority of broadband subscriptions, the rapid take up of mobile broadband services hints at the evolving market. Against this backdrop competing Fibre-to-the-Home (FttH) networks are being deployed, with approximately four million households passed. Deployments will continue into 2012 given the incumbent is executing on a 10 year project timeframe.

Recognising the potential of applying ICT to improve both social and economic development, Turkey has taken steps to develop a digital economy, encompassing e-commerce, e-government, e-health and e-education. The large potential online market has attracted international significant investment from multinational firms such as eBay and South Africa-based Naspers.

Mobile penetration in Turkey has reached levels indicative of maturity. However a large demographic of future customers (approximately 25% of Turkey’s population is under the age of 15, an age at which mobile phone ownership is highly uncommon) points to continued growth. In addition the focus on mobile broadband services following the launch of 3G/HSPA networks should find a receptive market among Turkey’s young technologically savvy population.
