 Morocco - Internet and Broadband Market, Overview and Forecasts
Synopsis
Morocco's Internet market was dominated by Maroc Telecom ADSL broadband service which held over 90% of the market until recently. Despite this de-facto monopoly position, the country has some of the lowest broadband prices and highest penetration rates in Africa and has seen the introduction of innovative new services such as the first commercial IPTV service on the continent. Within three years of their introduction, third-generation (3G) mobile broadband services had taken almost two-thirds of the broadband market by early 2010. This development is expected to continue since the mobile networks reach a far greater percentage of the population than Maroc Telecom's copper fixed-line network. To accommodate the increasing amount of Internet traffic, fibre optic national backbone networks and international connectivity are being expanded.

Morocco - Key Statistics, Regulatory and Fixed-Line Telecoms Overview and Forecasts
Synopsis
Morocco is one of the most advanced telecommunications markets in Africa, featuring a majority-privatised, highly profitable incumbent telco (Maroc Telecom), three fixed and mobile network operators, as well as the highest penetration and some of the lowest prices on the continent for broadband Internet access. The fixed-line market has experienced a renaissance, following the launch of the second and third network operators (Meditel and Wana) and fuelled by the growing demand for broadband services. Most of the new connections are wireless and increasingly converging with mobile services. To accommodate the increasing amount of voice and Internet traffic, the operators are upgrading their fibre optic national backbone networks and international connectivity.

Morocco - Mobile Market Overview, Statistics and Forecasts
Synopsis
Morocco's mobile market, at already more than 80% market penetration and one of the highest in Africa, received a late boost in early 2010 from the launch of GSM services by the country's third mobile network, Wana, which had already been operating a CDMA2000 network since 2007. With all three companies also being fixed-line or fixed-wireless operators, the boundaries between fixed and mobile are beginning to disappear as technologies and services converge. In addition, the three mobile networks have become dominant players in the country's Internet market following the introduction of third-generation (3G) mobile broadband services. This report contains an overview and analysis of Morocco's mobile market, relevant statistics and profiles of the major players, and two forecast scenarios to 2012 and 2015.
