This quarterly update on Saudi Arabia’s telecoms market sees the introduction of several structural changes, including a reorganisation of the report’s various sections and the adoption of a new format for presenting operator profiles. The Mobile Data section of the report includes new coverage of the development of mobile value-added services in Saudi Arabia, as well as an overview of some of the sector’s recent contract wins. In this quarter, we have focused more attention on developing the mobile sections of our report, including the mobile operator profiles. In our next quarterly update, we plan to introduce considerable revisions to the fixed-line and broadband sections of our report.
BMI estimates that there were 38.462mn mobile subscribers in Saudi Arabia at the end of 2008. This is equivalent to a penetration rate of 150%, and reflects growth of 35.5% for 2008 as a whole. The stronger than expected growth in Saudi Arabia’s mobile market has been based partly on the August 2008 launch of commercial operations by the country’s third GSM/3G operator, Saudi Zain. Saudi Arabia’s newest mobile operator went on to report strong subscriber growth in the fourth quarter of the year. By the end of 2008, Zain had over 2mn mobile customers in Saudi Arabia, all of which were said to be 90-day active.
Key developments in the Saudi telecoms market in recent months include the March 2009 announcement by Mobily that it had launched High-Speed Uplink Packet Access (HSUPA) technology over its 3.5G network. The new technology will initially be available in principal areas of the Kingdom, with expansion to other areas within the coming few months. Mobily has set aside SAR1bn for the roll-out. At the time of making the announcement, Mobily revealed that it had more than 300,000 HSPA-based mobile broadband users on its network.
Other recent developments in the Saudi telecoms market include the completion of Etihad Atheeb’s IPO on 21 March 2009. Atheeb is one of three firms which were recently licensed to compete in the Saudi fixed-line market alongside incumbent operator Saudi Telecom Co. (STC). The other licensees are Optical Communications, whose shareholders include Verizon Communications of the US and Luxembourg-based Millicom, and Al-Mutakamilah, a consortium led by Hong Kong’s PCCW. The floatation of 30% of Atheeb’s capital was aimed at raising SAR300mn (US$80mn) for the operator. Atheeb’s March IPO was Saudi Arabia’s first IPO since August 2004, as a number of sales have been postponed due to the global financial crisis. Meanwhile, Atheeb announced in February that it was ‘weeks’ away from launching its mobile broadband network in Saudi Arabia. The operator plans to be the first to offer a nationwide WiMAX network.
Saudi Arabia has moved from second to third place in our latest Business Environment Rankings for the telecoms markets of the Middle East. Saudi Arabia’s stronger overall position is due to slightly stronger Telecoms Market and Country Risk scores, which are counterbalanced by a weaker Country Risk rating.
