A NEW STUDY BY STRATEGY ANALYTICS EXPLAINS THAT ALTHOUGH MOBILE SERVICE REVENUE GROWTH ACCELERATED IN 2010 FROM GROWING CONSUMER SPEND AFTER THE RECESSION, A SIMILAR BOOST THIS YEAR IS UNLIKELY.
THE RESEARCHER PREDICTS REVENUE GROWTH WILL SLOW TO 4 PERCENT THIS YEAR AS THE SECTOR CRAWLS TOWARD THE USD 1 TRILLION REVENUE MARK WHILE THE MOBILE SUBSCRIPTIONS WILL PASS 6 BILLION.
THE REPORT STATES THAT SIGNIFICANT NEW SUBSCRIPTION GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES EXIST FOR MOBILE OPERATORS IN NEW CONNECTED DEVICE CATEGORIES, EVEN THOUGH INCREASINGLY SATURATED MARKETS FOR TRADITIONAL MOBILE VOICE SERVICES WILL RESULT IN A SLOW-DOWN IN GLOBAL GROWTH RATES.
THE RESEARCHER SAYS WITH GROWTH STILL CONCENTRATED IN DEVELOPED MARKETS, 3G AND 4G NETWORKS INCREASINGLY DOMINATE THE REVENUE PICTURE AND WILL ACCOUNT FOR HALF OF ALL WORLDWIDE MOBILE SERVICE REVENUES THIS YEAR.
BEGINNING NEXT YEAR, GLOBAL 2G SUBSCRIPTIONS WILL BEGIN TO FALL AS MORE AFFORDABLE 3G DEVICES ALLOW OPERATORS TO PUSH SERVICES BEYOND HIGHER-SPENDING SEGMENTS.
THIS IS ACCORDING TO TELECOMPAPER WEBSITE MONITORED BY RADIO PHOENIX.
