DUBLIN--()--Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/t7trr8/philippines_teleco) has announced the addition of the "Philippines Telecommunications Report Q3 2012" report to their offering.

Business Monitor International's Philippines Telecommunications Report provides industry professionals and strategists, corporate analysts, telecommunication associations, government departments and regulatory bodies with independent forecasts and competitive intelligence on Philippines's telecommunications industry.

BMI's Q312 report on the Philippines telecommunications market provides a comprehensive overview of the latest developments n the country's mobile, fixed-line telephony and internet sectors. Latest data from various telecoms operators have been incorporated and there were some changes, particularly in the mobile and internet segments.

BMI View:

Growth for the Philippine mobile industry in 2011 was weaker than we had previously expected, which has resulted in a downgrade in our expectations. We now envisage 110.718mn mobile subscribers in the country at the end of 2016, up from 99.830mn in 2012. The prevalence of prepaid subscriptions will continue to support subscriber growth, but we expect a gradual improvement in the proportion of postpaid subscribers as operators look at more profitable revenue streams. Meanwhile, data from the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) indicated that there were significantly more internet users in the Philippines than it had previously reported. The ITU revised its 2010 internet user data for the Philippines to 23mn, up from 6mn previously, and this has had a trickle-down effect on our forecasts through 2016. We now forecast 39.482m internet users in the Philippines in 2016, up from 31.282mn in 2012.
