Fixed and Pay-TV Markets, Q4 2020: developments and future outlook

This report is available to those subscribed to the Fixed, TV and Convergence module.
Fixed and pay-TV markets continue to evolve around the world, with M&A, competition (including from OTT players) and technology investments major drivers. This new quarterly series outlines the latest market developments and the key trends to watch, charting the next five years to 2025. The report also provides comprehensive cross-country comparisons at your fingertips, allowing you to identify which markets or technologies will grow the most or how OTT competition will impact the adoption of traditional pay TV.
Our datasets, available in a detailed Excel file, provide granular operator-level data, in a similar format to our existing mobile market coverage, with quarterly data available from Q1 2010. Our fixed telecoms data extends to 36 of the largest markets globally (equating to more than 90% of global fixed broadband connections) across a wide range of reported metrics, including connections, technology splits of broadband and pay TV, bundling and financials.
We provide market-level outlooks, via a five-year forecast, of key technologies, and historical modelled connections estimates at an operator-level for each market. A key input to this is our fixed product tracker, also available in Excel, which records the launch of fixed technologies and bundled product offerings at an operator-level, for each of the markets we cover.
