"Turkish demand for mobile services has been positively affected by regulations aimed at reducing subscribers' costs," says Ronda Zelezny-Green, Associate Research Analyst at Pyramid Research.Mobile data will gain importance, as growth will be bolstered by increased consumption of 3G and mobile broadband services. Fixed broadband growth, which will increase by an estimated $800m to reach $3.0bn in 2016, will be limited due to the rapid expansion of mobile broadband usage. Pyramid expects robust growth for IPTV services, which will have a CAGR of 78% from 2011-2016. "Aided by the satellite operators' exclusive rights to live football broadcast, the pay-TV segment will grow at a CAGR of 10%," she adds.
