Word from Author:

Telecommunications markets in Central and Eastern European countries matured and evolved in recent years. Key trends visible in Western Europe, e.g. fixed-to-mobile substitution, development of mobile broadband or bundled services growing popularity, can also be observed in the CEE region.

The crucial problem is now infrastructure investments, which would allow for broadband internet capacity comparable to that of Western European leaders (CEE countries lag behind the most here). Financial crisis, though having relatively lighter impact on the telecoms branch, forced operators to significantly reduce or freeze expenditures on network deployment and upgrade. Still, first signs of macroeconomic recovery have already been visible and operators must decide now how their investment budgets will look like, what direction the telecoms market will go to and what services would grant them the highest margins in the coming years. In other words, a new post-crisis strategy must be ready as soon as possible.
