The Latin American Pay TV market will have around 47.1 million subscribers by 2013. This figure represents a CAGR of approximately 10.9% for the 2008-2013 period. Argentina, Brazil, Colombia and Mexico will have 82% of Pay TV subscribers via CATV.
Buenos Aires, Argentina - July 17, 2008 - Signals Telecom Consulting, the leading Latin American and Caribbean telecommunication markets consulting and research firm is proud to announce the publications of its "CATV Business Models in Latin America: Operator Profiles" report. In this study, Signals takes a look at the CATV type Pay TV service offerings of 11 operators in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Peru and Venezuela.
This report highlights the fact that robust competition in the telecommunications market via multi-service packages will trigger an upswing in growth rates for pay TV services. This will be made possible by a reduction in entry barriers for segments that either do not currently making use of this type of service, or do so via clandestine connections.
"As a whole, the seven largest Latin American markets will have a household pay TV penetration rate of around 34.4% by 2013. This is almost double the 2007 figure. The drivers of this growth are the favorable economic environment being felt throughout the region and an increased competitive dynamic that has allowed for bringing lower income segments into this market," points out Carlos Blanco, report author.
"Local incumbent telecommunications operators enjoy sizeable scales and can position themselves as important players in the pay TV market," adds Blanco.
