dc.description.abstractThis document offered an exploratory view of the market structure in the mobile market in Latin America. Given the importance of mobile services as a mean of access to low income groups, the objective in this paper was to identify the impact that the consolidation of two firms in the region has had on mobile penetration as a piece of background research which will inform the Regional Dialogue on the Information Society (DIRSI) larger project on the mobile sector in Latin America. Following this line of inquiry this paper investigated the links between variables associated to market concentration and known to influence mobile penetration such as pricing and spectrum allocation. The findings were mixed. The first finding is that market concentration differs significantly across the countries. Even though both Telefónica and América Móvil have consolidated their position in Latin America and are today the only significant players at the regional level, the number of firms in each market vary in each country. However, as measured by the IHH, it is possible to observe an increasing concentration in most countries.es_ES
