Chile Information Technology Report Q2 2015: New research report available at Fast Market Research

From: Fast Market Research, Inc.
Published: Mon Feb 09 2015


Our strong outlook for the Chilean IT market is backed up by acceleration in real GDP growth compared to 2014. The government's fiscal stimulus should have positive spillover effects for the IT industry, which draws a large percentage of revenues from the public sector. Lower oil prices should support stronger economic activity among consumers, with potential for greater spending on IT hardwa re such as tablets and laptops. However, in local currency terms, the IT market will decline as a result of the weaker outlook for the peso against the dollar. Falling copper prices and bull run on the US dollar will counteract the positive effects from lower oil prices. IT services are expected to grow strongest in Chile throughout our forecast period, as businesses increasingly opt for cloud computing solutions to cut costs.

Headline Expenditure Projections

Computer Hardware Sales: We expect sales to rise to CLP886bn in 2015, an increase of 6.1%. Tablet sales forecast to outperform again in 2015 but we also forecast a return to growth for the notebook market.

Software Sales: CLP362bn in 2014 to CLP394bn in 2015, an increase of 8.8% in local currency terms. The falsest growth is expected to be in more complex enterprise software such as CRM and BI as demand moves beyond basic ERP solutions.
