GSMA Intelligence's Chart of the Month is a visual way of telling an important story in the mobile and broader tech ecosystem. From the shape and size of markets to trends in consumer behaviour, we aim to provide food for thought through informative visuals designed to bring colour and clarity to complex issues facing the industry. In this edition, we highlight the fall in the average price paid for mid-band 5G spectrum over the last two years, reflecting initiatives by policymakers to set reserve prices at levels that allow the market to determine the true value.
