According to our new research on the booming Turkish telecom market, “Turkey Telecom Sector Forecast to 2012”, the number of broadband subscribers in Turkey grew at a CAGR of more than 65% during 2005-2007. This growth rate is higher than that reported by the Internet subscribers (44%) during the same period. Broadband subscribers accounted for nearly 93% of Internet subscribers at the end of 2007 compared with 71% in 2005.
The factors which have led to the transition of subscribers from dial-up Internet access to broadband such as ADSL (Asynchronous Digital Subscriber Line) include the effectiveness of technology in meeting consumer needs at relatively low cost, and new investments by Turk Telecom (TT) in its infrastructure expansion.
Currently, the market for ADSL services is dominated by TT’s wholly-owned subsidiary TTnet, representing around 95% share of the retail ADSL access market in Turkey based on the number of access lines at the end of 2007.
Given the rapid rate of Turkey’s economic growth and lack of mobile broadband services due to the absence of 3G and WiMAX, the broadband sector is anticipated to see strong demand from both consumer and corporate sectors in future. Apart from this, growth of service sector amid increasing computer penetration and declining prices will lead to increasing broadband penetration. But fair competition needs to be established to ensure healthy growth and consumer benefit, says the research.
As a result, broadband subscriber penetration is projected to exceed 19% through 2012.
