Malta - Telecoms, IP Networks, Digital Media and Forecasts
Synopsis
Malta has a small telecom market with mobile and broadband penetration below the EU average. The ubiquity of cable ad DSL networks has caused unique regulatory issues relating to competition. The duopoly of GO and Melita in the broadband market was broken with the entry of Vodafone as a WiMAX provider, while GO Mobile has also launched a WiMAX network to complement its HSPA coverage. This report presents key statistics and analysis on the telecom market in Malta in 2009. It profiles the dominant players GO, Vodafone Malta and Melita Cable, details the availability and take-up of broadband and mobile services, examines digital TV developments, and provides broadband forecasts to 2018. Additional information is provided on the key regulatory issues, noting the status of interconnection, wholesale broadband access, local loop unbundling and number portability.
