Research and Markets: Burundi - Telecoms, Mobile, Internet and Broadband Market - Overview and Statistics

(M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Dublin - Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/668d1dda/burundi_telecoms) has announced the addition of the "Burundi - Telecoms, Mobile, Internet and Broadband Market - Overview and Statistics" report to their offering.

With stable GDP growth of around 5% p.a., a high population density and a high growth rate in a low-penetration mobile market, Burundi is one of the most attractive African telecom markets for investors, despite the fact that it is also one of the worlds poorest countries. 2012 will see the landlocked country connected to international fibre optic cables for the first time which will end its dependency on expensive satellite connections and give it access to much greater amounts of international internet bandwidth at lower prices. In preparation for the internet boom that is expected as a result, two of the five mobile operators have already launched 3G broadband services. Some consolidation can be expected in the future as five networks may find it hard competing in this relatively small market. A sixth operator licence was awarded in 2008 but the company hasnt launched a service yet. In addition, the national telco, Onatel (which also operates one of the mobile networks) is scheduled to be privatised in 2012.

Market Highlights: - High growth rate in a low-penetration mobile market; - Internet and 3G mobile broadband boom expected in 2012; - Five mobile networks, sixth licence awarded; - Consolidation among mobile operators expected; - Privatisation of national telco planned for 2012; - Stable GDP growth of 5% p.a.
