Saudi Arabia entered 2018 on a positive note
with the government announcement of its largest financial budget ever which
will support the country’s expansion and diversification plans as part of its
Vision 2030 program. Generally speaking; the strategy will implement changes
relating to improving the kingdom’s economy through increases in taxes and fuel
prices as well as encouraging investment and diversification away from its
reliance on oil. It will also support the use of digital technologies for such uses
as cloud computing and e-commerce as well as encouraging ICT development,
including investments in broadband infrastructure.
Broadband is widely available in Saudi Arabia
via DSL, fibre, and wireless. In 2018 DSL subscriptions still account for the
largest proportion of fixed broadband subscriptions but are now in decline as
consumers switch to mobile broadband or FttH/FttP services.

Internet penetration in Saudi Arabia has
reached around 80%, well above the average for the Middle East. Saudi Arabia is
committed to providing Internet services to its deprived rural areas and a
special Universal Services project was established around ten years ago. The
program is now over three quarters completed with thousands of localities
provided access where it was not considered commercially viable for operators
to do so.
The mobile operators have faced recent changes
and challenges with the introduction of the biometric fingerprint law which saw
subscriber numbers drop, as well as a shift away from pre-paid accounts.
A major competitive shake-up for the Saudi
telecoms sector began in late 2016 when the Saudi government announced plans to
award unified licenses to Zain Saudi Arabia and Mobily, which would allow the
operators to offer fixed line telephony and Internet services. In the past only
STC was permitted to do so. In 2018 Go Telecom’s request for the unified
license was rejected however.
Further increasing competition in the mobile
market was the recent lifting of OTT VoIP and messaging services bans, allowing
providers such as Skype, Viber, Whatsapp and so forth to begin operations
again.
