In many markets the net effect should be a steady though reduced increased in subscriber growth.Īlthough it is challenging to predict and interpret the long-term impacts of the crisis as it develops, these have been acknowledged in the industry forecasts contained in this report. However, the crucial nature of telecom services, both for general communication as well as a tool for home-working, will offset such pressures. On the consumer side, spending on telecoms services and devices is under pressure from the financial effect of large-scale job losses and the consequent restriction on disposable incomes. Overall progress towards 5G may be postponed or slowed down in some countries. During the coming year, the telecoms sector to various degrees is likely to experience a downturn in mobile device production, while it may also be difficult for network operators to manage workflows when maintaining and upgrading existing infrastructure. The new licensee has been barred from contracting Chinese vendors, thus opening the door to western vendors.īuddeComm notes that the outbreak of the Coronavirus continues to have a significant impact on production and supply chains globally. Ethio Telecom has placed the expansion of LTE services as a cornerstone of its investment program to 2022. The country’s mobile platform has mostly been provided by ZTE and Huawei, which have offered vendor financing. In addition, the World Bank in early 2021 provided a $200 million loan to help develop the country’s digital transformation, while the government has embarked on its 2020-2030 program as well as its Digital Ethiopia 2025 strategy, both aimed at making better use of digital technologies to promote socio-economic development. These developments have attracted considerable investment in the sector. In the meantime, the government in mid-2021 began the process of selling a 45% stake in the incumbent telco Ethio Telecom.
Only one of the two licenses on offer was secured, with uncertainty as to the timetable for issuing the second licence. The consortium was in some respects a proxy for the wider influence over Ethiopia’s telecom sector between the interests of the US and China. This has stifled innovation, restricted network expansion, and limited the scope of services on offer. The country had been one of the last in Africa to allow its national telco a monopoly on all telecom services including fixed, mobile, internet and data communications. The slow process to open up Ethiopia’s telecom market was completed with the licensing of the Safaricom-led Global Partnership for Ethiopia consortium.
