Fixed broadband markets: is there a link between levels of market concentration and connections growth?

The global fixed broadband market has experienced major changes in recent years, including shifts in the technology access mix towards next-generation networks such as fibre, the entry of new players and M&A transactions. We conducted an analysis of how the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI) – a measure of market concentration – has changed over the last decade. We also analysed the correlation between changes in HHI and fixed broadband connections growth.
