Mobile network operators (MNOs) have invested heavily in setting up wireless tower
infrastructure, resulting in high financial burdens. With declining ARPS and pressure to invest in
network quality and LTE roll-outs, MNOs are looking to divest their tower infrastructure in
order to reduce capex and debt. This has emerged as an opportunity for third-party tower
companies (towercos) in recent years.
Report Scope
- In Europe, a growing LTE subscriber base and the increasing adoption of mobile video traffic
driven applications over LTE-enabled smartphones is providing fuel for wireless tower market
growth. It is, however, also resulting in substantial pressure being placed on operators to
increase the number of wireless tower sites.
- Until recently, the majority of wireless tower sites were owned and managed by MNOs,
however this scenario is changing due to the increase in divestments of tower infrastructure by
these operators. MNOs are either selling their tower infrastructure to independent towercos or
creating independent entities to manage the tower infrastructure.
