  • Consumers Benefit from Lower Mobile Termination
    Policy Brief no.1 2015 Pricing and QoS Quarter 1, 2015 Consumers benefit from lower mobile termination rates Mobile termination rates no longer pose an obstacle to competition. Cell C and Telkom Mobile have continued to place pressure on MTN and Vodacom to reduce their prices, even at the new higher rate of 20c. Despite being less favourable to the smaller operators than those introduced in March last year by ICASA, the latest mobile termination rate (MTR) of 20c set following the legal review still allows Cell C and Telkom Mobile to compete with MTN and Vodacom’s on-net1 prices. Table 1: ICASA MTR determinations Oct-14 Oct-15 Oct-16 MTN & Vodacom 20c 15c 10c Old mobile termination Cell C & Telkom Mobile 44c 42c 40c rates Asymmetry in % 120% 180% 300% MTN & Vodacom 20c 16c 13c New mobile termination Cell C & Telkom Mobile 31c 24c 19c rates Asymmetry in % 55% 50% 46% Call termination regulations, 2014, pursuant to section 67(8) of the Electronic Communications Act no. 36 of 2005, as amended Rates in ZAR The termination rate asymmetry, though much lower than previously proposed, gives Vodacom and MTN good reason to charge more for off-net calls than for on-net calls. 1 On-net calls are calls between subscribers of the same network, and off-net calls are calls between subscribers from one network to subscribers of another network. !1 Policy Brief no.1 2015 Pricing and QoS Quarter 1, 2015 The short-term cash flow benefit for Cell C and Telkom Mobile is unlikely to be significant.

  • Industrial Development and Growth in Nigeria: Lessons and Challenges
    Working Paper No. 8 Industrial development and growth in Nigeria: Lessons and challenges L. N. Chete, J. O. Adeoti, F. M. Adeyinka, and O. Ogundele* Abstract The structure of the Nigerian economy is typical of an underdeveloped country. The primary sector, in particular, the oil and gas sector, dominates the gross domestic product accounting for over 95 per cent of export earnings and about 85 per cent of government revenue between 2011 and 2012. The industrial sector accounts for 6 per cent of economic activity while the manufacturing sector contributed only 4 per cent to GDP in 2011. The economic transformation agenda, otherwise known as Nigeria Vision 20: 2020, sets the direction for the current industrial policy in Nigeria. The industrialization strategy aims at achieving greater global competitiveness in the production of processed and manufactured goods by linking industrial activity with primary sector activity, domestic and foreign trade, and service activity.

Through the development of a network, RIA seeks to build an African knowledge base capable of supporting the ICT policy and regulation processes and to ensure that the development of these processes is monitored on the continent. The research comes from a public interest agenda and is in the public domain and individuals, public and private sector entities and civil society are also encouraged to use it for training, future research or to enable them to participate more efficiently in the formulation of ICT policy and governance on national, regional and global levels. This research is made possible thanks to signi!cant funds received from the International Development and Research Centre (CRDI), Ottawa, Canada, to whom the members of the network express their gratitude for its support.
