inCITES updates the Prognosis database with 2017 actuals
inCITES Consulting has updated its granular mobile and fixed connectivity database, Prognosis, with 2017 actual data and a forecast that extends to 2023. Prognosis is based on a variety of public sources for the actual data part as well as a range of methodologies and inputs for the forecast part.
Key Figures:
-Total mobile subscriptions in Europe will reach 1.26 billion, up from 1.12 billion in 2017, growing at a CAGR of 1.9% between 2017-23.
- M2M subscriptions are expected to drive the majority of the subscriptions growth with a CAGR of 12.7% between 2017-23.
- Non-M2M subscriptions are also expected to continue to grow, but at a much slower rate (2017-23 CAGR: 0.4%), mainly due to the saturation effect observed in several markets, due to regulation, freeing of data plans and Fixed and Mobile Convergence.
- 5G is forecast to reach 181 million subscription by 2023, accounting for 17.4% of total mobile subscriptions excluding M2M, up from a few thousand connections in 2019. W. Europe will account for the vast majority of 5G subscriptions throughout the forecast period.
-Total fixed broadband subscriptions in Europe are forecast to grow at a CAGR of 1.8% between 2017-23, growing to 257 million in 2023, up from 231 million in 2017.
- Within the fixed broadband market, FTTx technologies are expected to grow the fastest, at a CAGR of 13.7% between 2017-23, mainly at the expense of xDSL technologies, which are expected to decline at a CAGR of -10.2% during the same period.
- W. Europe is expected to be the main driver behind the expected FTTx growth, due to the European Commision’s Action Plan for Europe mandate for ultra-fast broadband.
-Total fixed voice subscriptions in Europe are expected to decline to 223 million by 2023, down from 248 million in 2017 (CAGR of -1.8%). This is merely due to the continuation of the transition away from fixed voice services and towards mobile voice services, a market that has been declining consistently since 2009, according to Prognosis data.
-Total Pay-TV subscriptions are expected to grow to 203 million by 2023, up from 183 million in 2017 (CAGR 1.8%).
- Both Western and Eastern Europe are expected to see similar growth rates over the 2017-23 period. Growth in the Pay-TV market is expected to be driven mainly due to the significant increase of the number of bundle offerings in the majority of the European markets.
