Despite a turbulent global economic environment the performance through 2011 once again confirms Telenor as one of the fastest growing European telecommunication operators, most notably with organic revenue growth of 7%. In 2011, Telenor added 29 million mobile subscriptions largely due to continued strong growth in our Asian operations. Telenor also delivered an operating cash flow of more than NOK 19 billion, while maintaining a healthy balance sheet. A main focus for Telenor Group this year has been to prepare the networks across all business units for next generation data services, largely driven by the tremendous growth in data traffic from smartphones.

  • Shaping Our Financial Future Socio-Economic Impact of Mobile Financial Services
    Shaping our financial future Socio-economic impact of mobile financial services 1 Growth comes from truly understanding the needs of people, to drive relevant change 2 Foreword It is my pleasure to introduce you to our most recent study on the socio-economic impact of mobile financial services, conducted with the help of Boston Consulting Group (BCG). Through our research, we looked at what mobile financial services will mean to the world in the year 2020. We specifically delved into five countries: Pakistan, Malaysia, Bangladesh, India and Serbia, all markets in which Telenor Group has mobile operations. Without giving away too much of what lies ahead, I can firmly say that mobile financial services will have a significant impact on the economic and societal growth of the countries studied. By bringing banking services and financial products to people who are entirely unbanked at present, they now have the chance to strengthen their development and prosper. The mobile phone is the key to simpler money transfers, readily accessible savings accounts, new methods of bill payment and even insurance products to protect against unforeseen events. This is the first comprehensive study to truly identify the impact of mobile financial services over the next decade. It helps us understand how the introduction of these services can create more jobs in Pakistan, bring insurance to more people in India and increase Serbia’s GDP. While the results of our study are not absolute, they give an indication of what is possible with the appropriate regulatory framework and governmental support. As a global telecommunications operator, we have a unique role to play in the development and expansion of mobile financial services.

  • HD Voice – a Revolution in Voice Communication
    HD Voice – a revolution in voice communication Besides data capacity and coverage, which are one of the most important factors related to customers’ satisfaction in mobile telephony nowadays, we must not forget about the intrinsic characteristic of the mobile communication – the Voice. Ever since the nineties and the introduction of GSM there have not been much improvements in the area of voice communication and quality of sound has not seen any major changes. Smart Network going forward! Mobile phones made such a progress in recent years that they have almost replaced PCs, but their basic function, voice calls, is still irreplaceable and vital in mobile communication and it has to be seamless. In order to grow our customer satisfaction and expand our service portfolio, Smart Network engineers of Telenor Serbia have enabled HD Voice by introducing new network features and transitioning voice communication to all IP network. This transition delivers crystal-clear communication between the two parties greatly enhancing customer experience during voice communication over smartphones. Enough with the yelling into smartphones! HD Voice (or High-Definition Voice) represents a significant upgrade to sound quality in mobile communications. Thanks to this feature users experience clarity, smoothly reduced background noise and a feeling that the person they are talking to is standing right next to them or of "being in the same room" with the person on the other end of the phone line. On the more technical side, “HD Voice is essentially wideband audio technology, something that long has been used for conference calling and VoIP apps. Instead of limiting a call frequency to between 300 Hz and 3.4 kHz, a wideband audio call transmits at a range of 50 Hz to 7 kHz, or higher.
