Market Report, "Bulgaria Consumer Electronics Report Q3 2016", published

Lev depreciation against the US dollar reduced the affordability of consumer electronics devic es for local consumers in 2015 and resulted in a contraction of spending overall in global currency terms, but the handset segment did maintain growth as a result of momentum from the smartphone boom. Over the medium term we expect a stronger growth trend t o return based on rising income, but this positive is tempered slightly by a declining population that will be a drag on demand growth. Nonetheless, l ow penetration across most device categories will allow vendors to tap into the first-time buyer and upgrade/replacement markets as incomes rise and confidence returns among households , supporting a CAGR of 4.2% over 2016-2020.
