Argentina Internet Usage, Broadband and Telecom Reports


Argentina - Data, Internet, Broadband and E-Services Report
Argentina’s Internet market is the third largest in Latin America, and penetration is among the highest in the region. After a slowdown during the economic recession, Argentina is growing again in both narrowband and broadband. Traditionally, cable modem was the more popular medium of broadband access, but by mid-2003, DSL had consolidated its leadership. See the
executive summary.


Argentina - Key Statistics, Regulatory Overview, Telecom Infrastructure and Major Players
All telecom services in Argentina are completely open to competition. A single licence for any type of service is required (either fixed or mobile, wireline or wireless, national or long-distance, with or without own infrastructure). Full liberalisation began in November 2000, and lead to an explosion of new technologies, new services and an influx of new players, but the economic crisis in 2002 had a devastating effect on the telecom industry, forcing telcos to freezes on their debt repayments and investments. The economy picked up in 2003 and telecommunications grew by around 38% in 2004. The biggest growth was in mobile telephony (around 68% increase in subscribers). The Internet also grew apace, with overall users up by 35%, while broadband subscribers surged by 88%.

Argentina - Mobile Communications and Broadcasting Report
Following an impressive growth in the late 1990s, the Argentine mobile market ground down to a halt during the 2001-2002 recession years. Mobile telephony began to recover in mid-2003 and experienced exceptional growth in 2004. Mobile subscribers are estimated to have grown 68% during 2004, to reach 12.3 million by early 2005.
