 Latvia - Telecoms Market Overview & Statistics
Latvia's communications market has evolved with more operators entering the market following liberalisation. Broadband penetration has increased dramatically in the past year and this trend looks set to continue into 2007. Cable is the main competing broadband technology although Fibre-to-the-Home is increasing in visibility as is WiFi, with plans to significantly increase the number of hotspots. Triple play services are available from both the fixed-line incumbent and the cable operators. The mobile market is not as penetrated as that of neighbouring Estonia and Lithuania, and the country's newest operator is rapidly gaining subscribers and has signed numerous agreements with MVNOs. Third 3G and HSDPA services are available, as are a variety of mobile content including streaming mobile TV, providing new growth opportunities in the maturing market although widespread usage is still a few years off. This report provides an overview of Latvia's communications sector, providing useful statistics for the fixed-line, broadband and mobile sectors and offers a wealth of information on market developments and the major operators.
