Abstract
Many network sharing partnerships have been announced in recent months and
this trend is likely to continue. The main driver is cost saving. Whatever the
country, there is significant pressure on mobile operators' cost structure. In
developed countries, 3G coverage requirements and the impact of mobile
broadband are among the drivers for network sharing adoption. In developing
countries, the operators have to simultaneously face strong capacity growth,
fast coverage expansion and low ARPU. These challenges require finding new
ways to approach the business, and network sharing is clearly one of the
identified strategies.
This report analyses the rationale behind the recrudescence of activity
surrounding network sharing in the wireless industry. Potential savings can be
tempting initially, depending on the selected network sharing approach, but
the associated risks must be carefully assessed.
