“Developed regions will continue to account for the majority of fixed broadband retail revenue between 2009 and 2015, but almost all growth is located in emerging regions .. Emerging regions will generate 28.5% of worldwide fixed broadband retail revenue by 2015, up from 17.2% in 2009. Developed markets accounted for 67% of fixed broadband connections at the end of 2009. This will fall to 54% by the end of 2015” says Martin Scott, Senior Analyst at Analysys Mason and author of the report.
