The domestic mobile market is showing some signs of maturity, with annual average growth of 5.7% in 2014-18. Revenue in the sector will reach US$22.7m in 2018 (up from US$2.6m in 2000), accounting for around 80% of total telecommunications market revenue. A recently approved telecoms reform poses upside risks to this forecast, depending on the degree of effectiveness of its implementation and investment uptake. The Economist Intelligence Unit will start to incorporate the impact of the reform gradually into its forecasts once major investments are announced.
The domestic telecoms market is extremely concentrated, with America Movil holding around 70% of the mobile and fixed-line telephone market (through Telcel and Telmex, respectively), and Grupo Televisa and TV Azteca holding 60% and 30% of the broadcast market respectively. Telefonica (Spain), under its local commercial brand, Movistar, and Nextel (US) are the only foreign operators directly involved in the Mexican market.
