| description |
Over the past ten years,
private-sector-led growth has revolutionized access to
telecommunications. Every region of the developing world did
benefit in terms of investment, and rollout. This revolution
would have been impossible without government reform, and
oversight. Advanced information and communication
infrastructure (ICI) are increasingly important to doing
business in a globalizing world. Governments, enterprises,
civil society, workers, and poor populations in the
developing countries need more affordable access. This
report proposes strategies that governments can carry out to
attract private investment, and ensure the continued
evolution, and spread of information and communication
infrastructure. These strategies encompass more than sector
policy alone, for investment decisions are based on a wide
range of factors including, for example, the roles played by
financial sector development, and the broader investment
environment. The strategies also include potential public
sector investments that can catalyze ICI rollout in
sub-sectors where the private sector is not prepared to
intervene on its own. |
