Key Highlights

Digital Switzerland Strategy will fuel internet adoption

The government's Digital Switzerland Strategy aims to achieve the strategic goals of digitization set by the Federal Administration. One of the key goals is the provision of high-speed broadband across all municipalities. The strategy also aims to create secure cyberspace through capacity-building programs to implement global regulations. This will increase customer confidence.

Declining mobile revenues are set to recover

There was a fall in mobile telecom revenue during 2015-2016. However, it will regain momentum as mobile service revenue is expected to grow from US$6,269.9 million in 2016 to US$6,658.8 million in 2021 at a CAGR of 1.2%. With mobile subscription growth largely unchanged, the upturn will be a result of an increase in ARPS, driven by data usage and voice MOU.

High termination rates will enhance overheads

European Union (EU) regulations do not apply to operators in Switzerland; as such, operators in the EU have increased termination rates for voice traffic originating in Switzerland, forcing Swiss operators to pay higher charges. Although negotiations for a resolution are ongoing, these charges may have a material effect on the industry if negotiations fail or a court rules in favor of the EU operators.
