DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/6d4929/jordan_telecommuni) has announced the addition of the "Jordan Telecommunications Report Q1 2011" report to their offering.
The Jordan Telecommunications Report provides industry professionals and strategists, corporate analysts, telecommunication associations, government departments and regulatory bodies with independent forecasts and competitive intelligence on Jordan's telecommunications industry.
Our latest update on the Jordan telecommunications market contains newly published data on the fixedline and internet markets by the country's Telecoms Regulatory Commission (TRC). With no new mobile data published except by Zain Jordan, BMI has estimated latest figures for September 2010. This has led to the revision of our forecasts for the mobile, fixed-line and internet markets. We have also extended our forecast period to 2015.
There were a total of 1.956mn internet users at the end of June 2010 representing 214,000 net additions since the end of 2009 when there were 1.742mn users. This compared to 2009, when there had been just 29,000 net additions, revealing there to be stronger demand for internet services. For the most part, this is being driven by higher personal computer (PC) penetration rates and lower tariffs. Our revised and extended forecasts expect that there will be 2.173mn internet users by the end of 2010, before increasing at an annual average rate of 11.2% to reach 3.7mn internet users by 2015.
Jordan Telecom continues to dominate the fixed-line market, with a share of around 99.9%. The TRC states there were 499,278 fixed lines in the market at the end of June 2010, of which Jordan Telecom had 499,000 lines. The number of residential lines continued to dominate the market, with a total of 318,328 representing a y-o-y fall of 3.03%. For the remaining corporate lines there were a total of 180,950, and which represented a y-o-y increase of 1.85%. Despite the increase, this was not enough to offset the overall decline of the fixed-line market, although we note there has been a slowdown in the decline. By the end of 2010, our newly-revised forecasts expect there to be 505,000 lines, with a penetration rate of 8.3%, before falling to 7.1% at the end of 2015.
