Telecommunications market of GuatemalaPhone Cards, Calling Cards |
| While telecom infrastructure in Guatemala is fairly modern in the main urban centres, rural telephony remains inadequate and antiquated, though a lot better that prior to the 1996 liberalisation of the telecom market. With a high percentage of the population living in rural areas, the country’s fixed-line teledensity is at the low end of the scale for Latin America. Though also not high by Latin American standards, mobile telephony has been a fast growing market, helped along by one of the most liberal radio spectrum regulatory models in the world. Mobile phones overtook fixed lines in 2001, and are now more than double the number of fixed lines in service. This report provides an overview of the country’s telecom sector accompanied by relevant statistics, and brief profiles of the main operators. Get this report now. |
