1 million and amounted to 193.1 million SIM cards. “Operators are moving away from the race for subscribers to work on increasing profitability from existing clients,” says TMT Consulting Managing Partner Konstantin Ankilov. We believe that the traditional mobile communications market has reached saturation. Subscriber base growth will be provided insignificantly by mobile Internet subscribers. The time has come for convergent products, such as, for example, FMC from MCN Telecom. It is the corporate segment that will be able to increase the penetration of mobile communications. For medium and small businesses, combining mobile, fixed and corporate communications into a single service available on a single SIM card is not only a convenient, but also a profitable solution.



“The growth in revenue from mobile communications france email list in the third quarter of 2017 occurred due to the provision of additional services to corporate clients,” confirms Konstantin Ankilov. , subscriber base growth will be ensured by connecting various devices. Virtual operators also have good prospects. "While MVNOs make up only 2% of the mobile communications market, this segment is of interest not only to operator companies, but also to financial organizations (PAO Sberbank, etc.). This year, we will see many new projects in this area," the analyst from TMT Consulting summarizes.It is hard to believe, but the concept of a convergent network (Fixed Mobile Convergence, or FMC), which would combine the advantages of fixed and mobile communications, is already - no more, no less - almost 20 years old! People started thinking about it on a global scale back in the late 1990s.



The first attempts by vendors and operators to create corresponding software and hardware solutions date back to the early 2000s, but this solution did not produce an explosive growth in popularity. The reason for such a slow "entry into the market", which is not very typical for the IT industry, can be called both the unpreparedness of the market at the early stage of the emergence of FMC (for example, not such a wide distribution of corporate mobile communications), and the inactive position of operators, who at that time were betting on other types of services. However, the concept was not phased out and still had its moment of glory.
