Ukraine Telecommunications Report Q1 2008
|
|
One of the most significant developments in Ukraine’s telecoms market in recent months has been thelaunch of 3G services by the country’s fixed-line incumbent Ukrtelecom, in November 2007. The launchmarked the incumbent’s return to the mobile market after the sale of its GSM operator Ukrainian MobileCommunications (UMC) to Russia's MTS in 2002. At the time of launch, Ukrtelecom’s UMTS serviceswere initially available in six Ukrainian cities. Ukrtelecom has already invested around US$150mn in 3Gnetwork development, and it plans to invest a further US$146mn in its W-CDMA services by the end of2008. With the launch of 3G services out of the way, expectations are turning to the long-promisedprivatisation of Ukrtelecom, which is now anticipated to take place some time in 2008. Ukraine’s StateProperty Fund had hoped to sell a 37.86% stake in the incumbent operator in 2007, but the sale wasdelayed partly as a result of parliamentary elections.
