Market Report, "Romania Telecommunications Report Q1 2016", published

Subscription-led growth is no longer possible in Romania's saturated mobile market . N etwork operators must deepen their relationships with existing customers, maximising monetis ation opportunities. A paucity of high-speed wireline broadband network s was a key driver in 3G uptake, but premium service usage is low , souring investor appetites. Demand for converged serv ices is growing, but Ancom's refusal to al low third parties to access cable operators' networks will impair further development.

Latest Updates & Industry Developments

Mobile subscriptions increased in 9M15, contrary to expectations. We forecast 27.5mn subscriptions by end-2015, rising to 28.0mn in 2019; variable annual growth will be attributable to ongoing efforts to eliminate inactive subscriptions.

A lack of broadband infrastructure outside major population centres, plus Ancom's reluctance to open the cable broadband networks of RCS&RDS and UPC Romania to third parties will weigh on wireline broadband expansion but will drive uptake of basic 3G mobile broadband services. 3G/4G subscriptions will grow from 18.6mn in 2015 to 25.0mn in 2019.
