  • 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.

  • Providing Internet for All in Myanmar—In Record Time
    Providing internet for all in Myanmar—in record time Mobile connectivity and the many opportunities that come with it were unknown to larger population of Myanmar until 2014. In just 32 months, close to 90% of the South East Asian nation’s population and more than 94% of townships in whole or in part are covered by Telenor Myanmar’s network. Telenor Myanmar’s Chief Marketing Officer, Joslin Myrthong, explains how a non-discriminatory market approach and multi-stakeholder collaboration helped the company build the country’s largest and fastest growing network. “The journey to build a world-class mobile network in Myanmar started with 68 sites only, perhaps the smallest GSM launch in history, in Mandalay in September 2014. The reception from the people of Mandalay was fantastic and we quickly realized that expansion needed to happen even faster than we had planned for to satisfy the huge demand”, said Joslin. A month later, the network was expanded to the country’s business capital Yangon and from there steadily enlarged to other states and regions, including the rural areas. “We made all reasonable efforts to expand the coverage by engaging with all relevant stakeholders, including the ethnic groups, in order to deploy our network in a safe and secure manner. From day one, we have been focused on delivering internet for all, without any discrimination as to who you are or where you live”, explained Joslin. As part of this approach, Telenor Myanmar has ensured that anyone can register to use mobile services by submitting admissible IDs via multiple online and physical registration channels.

  • 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.
