End-2011 results for Singapore’s telecoms industry have been made been available by the Infocomm Development Authority (IDA) as well as mobile operators Singapore Telecommunications (SingTel), StarHub and M1, which were subsequently factored into our forecast scenarios. Singapore’s mobile market reported disappointing growth in Q411 to bring the total to 7.756mn. Despite having one of the highest penetration rates in the region, we continue to see the subscriber base gradually increasing in the next few years, largely due to the continued demand for 3G services and multiple device ownership. We envisage 8.770mn mobile subscribers in the country by end-2016, of which 7.531mn will be using 3G services. Although the rising popularity of mobile services caused the fixed-line market in many countries to contract, the sector has held up well in the last few years. We continue to see some growth potential with the number of subscribers increasing to 2.057mn in 2013. However, we expect th

Eye care grew by 5% in current value terms to record sales of EUR0.7 million in 2011 in Estonia. Instead of saving money and reducing expenditure, consumers started to pay more attention to their health, which in turn increased the purchase of eye care products.

BMI View: Aside from the country’s well-publicised economic challenges, Italy is at a crossroads in terms of energy market development. The public is rejecting state efforts to revive nuclear strategy, leaving the way clear for gas volumes to march steadily higher – forcing the import bill to keep pace. Domestic oil and gas volumes are significant but under threat, while Italy’s refining system will continue to absorb cash but offer little in the way of returns. The main trends and developments we highlight in Italy’s Oil and Gas sector are: 1.Gas use in power generation is the key to demand growth and consumption looks set to reach 86.6bn cubic metres (bcm) by 2016. Imports are likely to have reached at least 80bcm at this stage. By 2021, the country is set to be a net importer of more than 92bcm per annum, costing potentially some US$40bn.   Snam Rete Gas, the Italian gas distribution network, may shortly be either fully or partly spun off from majority owner Eni, as a res

                As of early 2012, the data published by Bimeh Markazi Iran, the insurance regulator, suggests that total premiums increased by 27% in Iranian year 1389, which ended in March 2011 (please note this year is shown as 2010 in the tables in this report). This was a lot more than the growth of 15% or so that we, and other commentators had been looking for.                     The implication is that non-life penetration has risen decisively above the level at which it had stagnated in 2005-10, specifically 1.1-1.2% of GDP. In the coming months, we will be looking for further details as to what are the key drivers of this growth. It is not impossible that the major insurers have been able to increase prices. We would be amazed, though, if it is significantly because of developments in Iran’s miniscule life insurance sector. One of the defining characteristics of the economy is entrenched high inflation (and expectations) thanks to persistent monetisation of fiscal defic

India's freight transport sector continues to develop rapidly, desperately trying to keep pace with the rapid growth of the country's economy and trade requirements. Trade growth is set to average over 9% between 2012 and 2016. There are obstacles to this, however, as congestion in ports and antiquated infrastructure impose limitations on growth potential. If investment can be assured, one need only look at the strong expansion of the private Gujarati ports to see the potential. Air and rail freight are both also set to grow quickly, with air freight in particular to benefit from India's booming pharmaceutical industry. The sale of Air India's dedicated freighter craft will have been a blow to the home-grown industry, however.
