Methodology

  • Reported services revenues by companies from 94 countries have been converted to US Dollar figures based on year end exchange rates:
    • As such, historical growth is affected by foreign exchange movements
    • Handset and equipment sales are excluded
  • Forecasts are created from historical trends plus adjustments for known market or economic changes
  • No foreign exchange fluctuations are factored into forecasts so forward growth rates are ‘smoother’ than historical ones
  • Regions and global figures are calculated by aggregating country data
  • At around $1.4 trillion, we estimate this represents 85+% of global telco service revenues and is a good indicator of the overall industry
