Chile - Convergence Broadband and Internet market Chile's Internet and broadband penetration rates are the highest in South America. In fact, when it comes to new technologies, Chile tends to be Latin America's pioneer. The region's first IPTV service, for example, was offered by Telefónica Chile in June 2007, though on a limited scale. Telsur, another Chilean telco, launched Latin America's first wireless TVoIP service in August 2007. Telmex Chile claims to have launched, in October 2007, the first mobile WiMAX service in Latin America, but only for corporate clients. In terms of convergence, Chile is the uncontested regional leader with VTR - Latin America's first triple player - and several other companies all offering triple play packages. In this report, we review Chile's Internet, broadband, and pay-TV sectors, we take a look at major players in these markets and at their convergence strategies, and we provide relevant statistics and analyses.

Chile - Key Statistics Regulatory Overview and Fixed Network Markets Chile is often portrayed as a role model by the international business community, especially for its adoption of progressive social policies together with a competitive free market approach. But despite a relatively modern infrastructure and a sound regulatory system, Chile's fixed-line teledensity is only slightly higher than the Latin American average. This compares poorly with the country's other economic indicators, such as GDP per capita, which is one of the region's highest. Moreover, there is significant inequality between Chile's urban and rural teledensity. Several operators provide fixed-line telephony in competition with the incumbent Telefónica Chile, using technologies based on triple play, WLL, VoIP, and NGN. This report provides an overview of Chile's regulatory environment and telecom infrastructure, with brief profiles of the main fixed network operators and statistical data.

Chile - Mobile Market - Overview and Statistics Chile has lost its South American leadership in terms of mobile penetration, having been overtaken by Argentina, Uruguay, Venezuela, and Paraguay. Nevertheless, Chile's mobile market remains strong, with an average of nine out of ten people owning a mobile phone. After years of slippage, Chile's mobile ARPU has started to grow again, partly because of expanding mobile data service, and partly because of growth in postpaid client ratios. Telefónica's Movistar, Entel PCS, and América Móvil's Claro are engaged in a lively competition for mobile market share. All three operators have launched 3G networks using their existing spectrum, while arguments rage over the launch of a 3G auction. In this report, we review Chile's mobile market, we take a look at the country's mobile operators, and we provide relevant statistics and analyses.

Chile - Telecoms Market Statistics & Forecasts The Chilean telecom market, one of the most dynamic and promising in Latin America, is expected to continue growing throughout the recession, albeit at a reduced rate. Financial risk appears to be moderate in Chile, and the country's macroeconomic environment is expected to remain sound. The telecom services worst affected by the crisis will be those that provide entertainment, such as pay TV, digital media, and non-corporate mobile data services. The fastest growing sectors will continue to be mobile telephony and broadband, though both have already started to decelerate. During the 2009-2013 period, mobile subscriber numbers and revenues should continue to grow, but at a rate slower than previously expected. This report contains statistics and scenario forecasts for the country's fixed-line, mobile, and broadband markets for the years 2013 and 2018.
