Iraq most competive Middle East mobile market

  • Iraq: Thursday, August 06 - 2009 at 12:05

Iraq has become the Arab world's most competitive mobile market, replacing Jordan. A study by the Arab Advisors Group has devised its Cellular Competition Intensity Index in order to rate and properly assess the level of competition in Middle East markets, and found that Iraq's came out top, with a score of 91%. It has five working operators, three of which run a national mobile licence, while the remaining two are regional operators in the Kurdistan region. "While Iraq's largest operator (Zain) has a substantial market share of more than 50%, Iraq's score benefited from the availability of corporate offers, operational ILD competition and 3G services,' the report said.
