DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Cyprus
– Telecoms Infrastructure, Operators, Regulations – Statistics and
Analyses” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s
offering.
This report introduces the key aspects of Cyprus’s fixed-line telecoms
market, outlining the regulatory environment and providing updated
operational and financial data on the major operators. Cyprus is a
divided island with most of the information in this report concerned
only with the Greek Cypriot area.
Despite the liberalisation of Cyprus’s telecom sector, the market
overall continues to be dominated by the incumbent, Cyta, which is still
fully-owned by the state though the government continues to press for a
sale of a minority stake in a bid to arrest the continuing decline in
the operator’s market share. As such, these plans (which form part of
the 2019 budget) have rekindled schemes to privatise Cyta dating to 2013
as part of a wider financial bailout package.
Improved regulatory conditions, particularly in relation to network
interconnection and access, has given competing operators the confidence
to invest in network infrastructure, to make use of unbundled local
loops and to launch competing services. The mobile sector has secured
some competition from the cableco Cablenet which launched services in
2017, though the operator only has a small market share.
