Ireland - Broadband Market - Overview Statistics & Forecasts

Ireland’s broadband market in 2008 was under-developed by European standards, although government efforts to improve local loop unbundling and wholesale access has meant that growth, albeit from a relatively low base, has been strong during the last two years. Low penetration has partly been due to high wholesale costs, lack of competition, high retail prices, and limited coverage in many non-urban areas. The proposed structural separation of eircom could have been a catalyst for rapid development in this market, but the 2008 financial crisis affecting eircom’s parent company suspended further progress.
