According to the information released by HOT TELECOM (www.hottelecom.com) in its latest report “Mobile Termination Rate Europe 2009”, in the first 7 months of 2009 alone, the average MTR in Europe was reduced by 10.3% to US$0.098/minute (€0.0068/minute).
Fixed to mobile termination rates (MTR) reduction has been a hot topic in Europe for a few years now and the subject is hotting-up. In May 2009, the European Commission set out clear guidance for EU telecom regulators on the cost based method to be used to calculate termination rates, as it aims at lowering fixed to mobile termination rates to between US$0.021/minute (€0.015/minute)1 to US$0,043/minute (€0.03/minute) by the end of 2012.
National regulators are therefore taking the necessary steps to reduce fixed to mobile termination rates closer to cost and to levels similar to the ones found in the fixed to fixed or mobile to fixed realm. Nevertheless, mobile operators around the European region are objecting to these reductions, often brining the matter to court, stating that the rates proposed by their national regulator and the European Commission would lead to significant revenue loss and even a possible increase in mobile tariffs. All the same, mobile operators are coming to terms with the fact that fixed to mobile termination rate reductions are inevitable in the long run.
National regulators’ efforts are starting to bear fruits, with the average European fixed to mobile termination rates having been reduced by an average of 13.0% per year over the last 3 years, brining the average rate down from US$0.166/minute (€0.116/minute) in January 2006 to US$0.109/minute (€0.076/minute) in January 2009. In the first 7 months of 2009 alone, the average MTR in Europe was reduced by 10.3% to US$0.098/minute (€0.0068/minute), and more reductions are planned in countries such as Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Rep, Hungary, Romania, and Slovenia by January 2010.
Cyprus continues to enjoy Europe’s lowest average fixed to mobile termination rate at US$0.029/minute (€0.020/minute)2 followed closely behind by Sweden at US$0.037/minute (€0.026/minute), Poland at US$0.043/minute (€0.024/minute), Austria at US$0.057/minute (€0.040/minute) and the UK at US$0.06/minute (€0.042/minute).
Three of the top five European countries charging the highest fixed to mobile termination rates come from Eastern Europe. Bulgaria leads the way with the highest average fixed to mobile termination rate in the region, standing at US$0.160/minute (€0.112/minute). Slovak Rep and Croatia follow with US$0.149/minute (€0.104/minute) and US$0.131/minute (€0.092/minute) respectively. Switzerland benefits from Western Europe’s highest rate with an average of US$0.151/minute (€0.106/minute), followed by Ireland with US$0.136/minute (€0.095/minute).
Some countries in Europe have taken drastic steps in the last 3 years to reduce MTRs to a more equitable level. Slovenia’s regulator for example imposed an average yearly reduction of 27.0% over the last 3 years to bring its average MTR down from US$0.252/minute (€0.176/minute), the second highest in the region at the time, to US$0.075/minute (€0.052/minute) in August 2009. Other such countries which have taken similarly radical steps include Poland, Belgium, Portugal, Greece and Austria. ‘Nevertheless, considering the continued high level of termination rates in some countries and the slow planned decreases, it will be difficult for a lot of the EU members to reach the European Commission target by the end of 2012’ HOT TELECOM’s president Isabelle Paradis said.
