Dublin, June 27, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Hungary Telecoms Market Report - Telecoms, Mobile and Broadband - Statistics and Analyses" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Hungary's telecom market sees increasing consolidation
Hungary's telecom infrastructure has been upgraded in recent years following considerable investments made by telcos as they upgrade their mobile networks to 5G and deploy more fibre. These developments have helped operators to promote converged fixed and mobile service, and this in turn prompted 4iG to expand its service reach by investing in Vodafone Hungary. 4iG is now the second largest MNO in the country, and the top provider of fixed broadband and TV services.
As in many other markets in the region, the number of fixed-lines continues to fall as subscribers migrate to the mobile platform for voice and data services. However, growth in the fixed broadband sector remains resilient, with the number of subscribers having increased 2.8% in 2021, largely supported by the wider reach availability of fibre.
The regulator has introduced a number of measures aimed at promoting competition in the broadband market, which is pushing the drive for higher speed platforms and encouraging operators to invest in technology upgrades. As a result, Hungary has the highest fixed broadband penetration rate in Eastern Europe. By the end of 2022, the incumbent telco Maygar Telekom provided a 1Gb/s service to over 3.4 million premises across the country.
The dynamic mobile market is served by four MNOs and a small number of MVNOs. Mobile penetration is relatively high for the region, and there remains considerable growth in mobile broadband services delivered via upgraded networks. Revenue growth is focused on mobile data as operators struggle with competition and regulated tariff reductions, as well as reductions in the MTR.
Maygar Telekom is at the forefront of 5G developments, supported by the government, universities, other telcos, and vendors forming the Hungarian 5G Coalition.
