Mobile Value Chain For Pakistan

This is part 2 of the series on economic and social benefits of mobile services in Pakistan. This will focus on the mobile value chain, that is, the share of different stakeholders such as mobile network operators, fixed line operators, handset makers, franchises, network equipment and service providers, government revenue etc. The diagram taken from Deloitte’s study gives a very interesting overview of the mobile value chain in 2006. The numbers (PKR millions) next to the arrows are revenues, those  in brackets represent value add while arrows indicate flow of funds. Click to see a higher resolution view.
