Sector: Mobile Operators

With LTE services rolling out around the globe in 2012, operators and affiliates must prepare themselves for the transformative effect this will have on the telecoms industry, particularly the roaming sector. The enterprise roaming segment has long provided a reliable price inelastic revenue stream but this stream can be widened to include all subscribers and increase revenues in a saturated market. International regulatory bodies have taken action in regards to operator tariffs for roaming services; the result has meant that operators need to alter their strategies in order to maintain these revenue streams. Visiongain believes this is the right time to capitalise, with smart and effective pricing strategies. Visiongain has determined that the value of the global roaming market in 2012 will reach $45.1billion.
