This BuddeComm report includes a Telecoms Maturity Index (TMI) that measures and ranks the maturity of a country’s telecoms industry on a scale of 1 to 100. Countries are placed into one of three categories: ‘Market Leaders’, ‘Market Challengers’, or ‘Market Emergents’, according to their Market Index score. The Index has been devised as a tool to compare the different markets easily and uniformly, and is itself dependent on a number of parameters such as fixed broadband and mobile broadband penetration. GDP is also included in one chart for illustrative purposes and as a gauge to help decipher market maturity.
