‘Taiwan: Declining Revenues Spur Operators Toward Converged Fixed-Mobile and Media Platforms,’ a new Country Intelligence Report by Pyramid Research, offers a precise, incisive profile of Taiwan’s mobile and fixed telecommunications and mobile markets based on comprehensive proprietary data and insights from our research in the Taiwan market. Published annually, this presentation-quality, executive-level report provides detailed analysis of the near-term opportunities, competitive dynamics and evolution of demand by service type and technology/platform across the fixed telephony, broadband and mobile sectors, as well as a review of key regulatory trends.
Scope
• In 2015, Taiwan’s telecom market generated service revenue of US$13.9bn, or 2.63% of the country’s GDP. The mobile voice and mobile data segments were the most important contributors to telecom service revenue, accounting for 53.1% of service revenue in 2015. However, despite increasing demand for high-speed data services, service revenue will decline gradually over the forecast period. Pyramid Research projects Taiwan’s revenue from telecom services will sink to $12.9bn by 2020. The decrease in both mobile and fixed voice services continues to be a drag on telecom service revenue.
• We project overall service revenue to decline at a 1.4% CAGR from 2015 to 2020. The fixed/mobile revenue split will be inclined toward mobile services over the forecast period. Increasing competition in the mobile data space will drive operators to offer innovative bundled services at competitive prices and to invest in network upgrades to increase their subscriber base.
• Taiwan’s telecom market has remained stable over the past few years. Chunghwa Telecom is the market leader in IPTV, fixed and mobile markets, while China Network Systems (CNS) leads the cable TV segment. The telecom market is expected to remain highly competitive over the next five years as operators enter into strategic partnerships to strengthen their market position.
• Over the forecast period, operators will be concentrating on providing an integrated platform of mobile Internet, broadband and multimedia-on-demand (MoD) services in line with the Digital Convergence Policy Initiative from the regulator. Operators are positioning themselves to serve the growing demand for data by building strategic partnerships with vendors. For instance, Chunghwa Telecom partnered with Alcatel-Lucent to use their G.fast and GPON technology to deploy FTTx infrastructures and promote near-gigabit services. Additionally, operators are in the process of launching OTT services to add value through content.
