Abstract
Overview
A Mobile Virtual Network Operator (MVNO) typically leases spectrum and mobile
network infrastructure from a Mobile Network Operator (MNO), and then on sells
these elements as telecommunication services at a profit markup and under a
its own brand. Historically MVNO service offerings have included traditional
mobile voice and data, however more recently we have seen business models
evolve to include such strategies as business to business (B2B) MVNO' s that
target, for example, the machine to machine (M2M), mobile banking, health and
lifestyle industries.
A critical aspect to the success of any MVNO is its wholesale negotiations
with the host mobile network operator (MNO). This report provides valuable
insights into the commercial models that are currently operational in today' s
MVNO market place. The report will elaborate on the rate structures of the
retail minus and cost plus models, the pros and cons of each, and how to
implement them. The report will discuss wholesale incentives, the
reconciliation process and also what macro and micro environmental aspects to
consider when defining your negotiation strategy.
