IE Market Research Corporation: Bangladesh will have 63.2 million wireless subscribers in 2013 with GrameenPhone's market share declining to 36.6%, according to new market research report by IEMR

Vancouver, Nov 20, 2009 (M2 PRESSWIRE via COMTEX) -- IE Market Research Corp. (IEMR), the Canadian-based provider of market intelligence services, announced today the release of its 4Q09 Bangladesh Mobile Operator Forecast, 2009 - 2013.

"We forecast that total wireless subscribers in Bangladesh will increase from 47.9 million in 2008 to 63.2 million in 2013. At the operator level, we expect that GrameenPhone will maintain its leading position in Bangladesh's wireless market over the next five years with 23.2 million mobile subscribers in 2013," said Nizar Assanie, Vice President (Research) at IEMR. "Banglalink, TM International, and Warid will remain in second, third, and fourth place respectively. Our model predicts that Banglalink will have 15.7 million, TM International will have 11.6 million, and Warid will have 7.4 million mobile subscribers respectively by the end of 2013." "Given the latest quarter numbers, we forecast that the industry average monthly ARPU will increase from USD 3.54 to USD 4.77 over the forecast period, 2008 - 2013. Our model predicts that Banglalink's monthly ARPU will increase from USD 2.99 in 2008 to USD 3.70 in 2013, and GrameenPhone's monthly ARPU will increase from USD 3.81 in 2008 to USD 5.48 in 2013," said Mr. Assanie.
