Egypt Mobile and Fixed Data Market Analysis and Forecast 2015

The Egyptian telecom market will generate an estimated US$5.0bn of service revenue in 2015 and will grow at a CAGR of 3.4% over 2015-2020, driven by growth in mobile and fixed broadband. Proliferation of smartphones coupled with the operators' focus on network enhancement will spur growth in the data segment. Telecom Egypt's focus on expansion of its fiber-optic networks and the regulator's plans to increase Internet penetration to 50% by year-end 2016 will boost the fixed broadband segment. The possible entry of Telecom Egypt into the mobile market, if the unified license is awarded by the regulator, will increase competition in the market. Pyramid Research expects Egypt to add about 0.2m pay-TV households over the next five years, supported by growth in the IPTV segment.
