Sudan Telecoms, Mobile and Broadband Market Size, Growth, Analysis, Trends, and Opportunities | 2018

WiseGuyRerports.com Presents “Sudan – Telecoms, Mobile and Broadband – Statistics and Analyses” New Document to its Studies Database
Scope of the Report:
Executive summary Sudan’s Sudatel signs network upgrade deals with Nokia and Liquid Telecom Sudan makes up the northern part of a country which in 2011 was separated to form the new state of South Sudan. Three quarters of the former population live in the north, where mobile market penetration is far higher.
The country has a relatively well-equipped telecommunications infrastructure by regional standards, including a national fibre optic backbone and international fibre connections. The economy has performed poorly in recent years, with hyperinflation resulting from the effects of having lost much of its oil reserves to South Sudan and to domestic volatility and social unrest. The country remains subject to United Nations Security Council (UNSC) sanctions which include (inter alia) an arms embargo, travel bans, and a freeze on certain assets. This economic climate has made it difficult for operators to develop revenue from services and sufficiently invest in infrastructure upgrades.
Nevertheless, Sudatel in 2016 began investing in rural tower infrastructure to improve connectivity (though such measures remain far below what is required) and in early 2018 it also signed deals with Nokia to upgrade mobile infrastructure and with Liquid Telecom to build out a fibre broadband network across the country.
Competition in the fixed-line market comes from Canar Telecom, which was majority-owned by Etisalat until Etisalat sold its 92.3% interest to the Bank of Khartoum in mid-2016. The operator opted to adopt CDMA2000 technology to cost-effectively roll out fixed services and in April 2017 it secured spectrum in the 2.5GHz band which has enabled it to launch LTE services.
Key developments:
Sudatel reports 26.8% fall in revenue for Q1 2018; Hyperinflation causing revenue decline for telcos; Sudatel partners with Nokia to trial mobile broadband technologies joins Liquid Telecom to build FttP networks across Sudan; Regulator awards 2.5GHz spectrum licence to Canar Telecom for LTE services; Sudatel announces $267 million investment plan to 2020, contracts to build mobile towers in rural areas; launches LTA-A in Khartoum; Zain Sudan expands LTE services; Sudatel makes bid for MNO licence in Oman Report update includes operator data to Q2 2018, recent market developments.

WiseGuyReports.com  “Angola - Telecoms, Mobile and Broadband - Statistics and Analyses”  report has been added to its Research Database. Scope of the Report: Angola’s new offshore cable system to service the crucial oil and gas sector Following the end of a decades-long civil war in 2002, foreign investment in Angola has intensified. This has had a knock-on effect in the telecoms sector, where there has been considerable interest in national infrastructure upgrades, as well as in developing addition international capacity. The mobile market remains vibrant despite a continued duopoly between Unitel and Angola Telecom’s Movicel. There has been particularly good progress in LTE network development into 2016. A new unified licensing regime should accelerate growth in the mobile sector in coming years. The government has aimed to develop telecom infrastructure in a bid to diversify the country’s economy and lessen its dependence on offshore crude oil production, whi...
