Mobile subscriptions declined in 9M15, in line with expectations. We forecast 16.788mn subscriptions by end-2015, rising to 16.889mn in 2019 as 3G/4G migration accelerates. There will be 7.421mn 3G/4G subscriptions by 2019.

Operator consolidation and altered ownership structures will focus investment on next-generation platforms, facilitating uptake of high-value triple- and quad-play services. Broadband subscriptions will reach 3.938mn in 2019, but will yield lower average revenue per user (ARPU) as a result of bundling.
