Telecommunications in
Nicaragua
Nicaragua has the second
lowest teledensity in Latin America after Haiti. However, 2004
brought some momentous changes to the telecom market. In January
2004, the government sold its remaining 49% interest in Enitel to
América Móvil, thus completing telecom privatisation.
In April 2004, the regulator announced that Nicaragua’s
fixed-line market would be opened to full competition in December
2004. In August 2004, América Móvil increased its
interest in Enitel to 99.03%, and applied for authorization to
merge Enitel Movil with Sercom Nicaragua. In October 2004,
BellSouth completed the sale of its Nicaraguan unit TCN BellSouth
to Telefónica Móviles. As a result, the mobile industry
in Nicaragua may soon be served by only two nationwide operators:
Telefónica Móviles and América Móvil.
