The future of road transportation: benchmarking spectrum and regulatory readiness for connected vehicles
This insight is open to all subscribers and registered users, or available by completing the form.
Today, factors such as road safety, efficiency and sustainability are pushing vehicles towards higher levels of automation. C-V2X connectivity is emerging as a key connectivity technology for the enablement of smart and autonomous vehicles.
GSMA Intelligence has benchmarked regulatory readiness for connected vehicles across 15 markets, using key indicators such as the presence of V2X policies and spectrum allocation for safety and non-safety ITS applications. The assessment reveals an average index score of 84 and a fragmented landscape with different levels of readiness for connected-vehicles deployment. Despite the promising opportunities, significant challenges remain, including those related to connectivity technologies, spectrum allocation, safety, privacy and security. Addressing these issues will require a number of regulatory frameworks to be developed and refined.

Net neutrality in Latin America: learnings from global experiences in mobile markets
Different approaches to net neutrality regulation serve as a natural experiment, allowing us to empirically assess real-world impacts. We find no evidence of net neutrality regulations increasing internet content diversity or consumer welfare. The lack of clear evidence on the benefits of regulation combined with unintended negative impacts on operators call for a re-evaluation of existing net neutrality regulations.
