Rwanda Competitiveness-2011

Report

A report by Jonathan Argent and Neil Pogorelsky for the International Growth Centre examining how enhancing telecommunications performance could improve Rwanda’s competitiveness. It documents explosive growth in Rwandan mobile subscriptions, from under 100,000 in 2003 to more than 4 million, dominated by MTN with a 67% market share, and credits the Rwanda Utilities Regulatory Authority’s interventions on mobile termination rates and infrastructure-sharing legislation with improving market competitiveness and accelerating network coverage expansion by new operators.
