Construction activity in Brazil was weak during 2011-2015 following the economic recession, which resulted in a deteriorating business environment and a reduction in construction activity.The industry is expected to remain under control over the forecast period (2016-2020), though with a slight improvement. The probable persistence of the economic recession until 2017 is expected to hinder the industry's growth during 2016-2017.The industry, however, is expected to recover and record minimal growth from 2018, supported by a gradual recovery in economic conditions and subsequent improvements in investor and consumer confidence.
Government efforts to kick-start economic growth through the implementation of flagship programs such as 'My House, My Life', the Logistics Investment Program, Plano Decenal de Energia 2024 (PDE 2024) and the National Education Plan 2014-2024 are expected to support the industry's growth over the period 2016-2020
Funds from Chinese investors are supporting Brazilian construction industry. In September 2016, the Brazilian and Chinese governments signed a memorandum of understanding for the implementation of projects worth BRL73.2 billion (US$20.0 billion) in Brazil. The Chinese government will invest in infrastructure, energy, manufacturing and mining projects.
In January 2016, the Ministry of Mines and Energy revised the country's solar energy targets as compared to the target planned for 2023, as a part of the new energy plan PDE 2024. Initially, the government announced plans to produce 3,500MW of solar power by 2023. Under the new target, the government is planning to generate 7,000MW of solar energy by 2024. These government initiatives are expected to support the energy and utilities construction market over the forecast period.

Czech Republic Telecom Sector to grow at 3.4% CAGR: Ken Research

Ken Research announced recent publication titled “The Czech Republic: Revenue Expected to Grow Moderately Through 2021 Supported by LTE, Fiber, Pay-TV and M2M Growth”, discuss telecom industry present and future analysis. It details fixed and mobile data usage and increase in pay-TV adoption trends. Report has covered telecom market size, major industry trends and competitive landscape of the market. Major players and their stake in the market has also been covered along with regulatory environment, political and demographic analysis.
The Czech Republic is a stable and prosperous market economy closely integrated with the EU. While the conservative, inward-looking Czech financial system has remained relatively healthy, the small, open, export-driven Czech economy remains sensitive to changes in the economic performance of its main export markets. As a result, real GDP fell sharply in 2009. The economy slowly recovered in the second half of 2009 and registered weak growth in the next two years. In 2012, however, the economy fell into a recession again, due both to a slump in external demand and to the government’s austerity measures. The auto industry is the largest single industry and, together with its upstream suppliers, accounts for nearly 24% of Czech manufacturing. The Czech Republic produced more than a million cars for the first time in 2010, over 80% of which were exported. The Czech Republic has developed as an advanced social market economy that supports a high-income welfare state.
czech-republic-telecom-industry-research
The Czech economy’s transition to greater openness and flexibility has been facilitated by a decade of restructuring and liberalisation. Low tax rates encourage the development of a vibrant private sector. The government has placed a high priority on fiscal discipline and is striving for budgetary balance after years of fiscal deficits. Lingering corruption increases the overall cost of doing business and continued institutional reforms to enhance transparency and keep government spending under control.
The Czech Republic is participating in the European Single Market of the European Union and is therefore a part of the economy of the European Union. Its largest trading partner for both export and import is Germany. As of July 2016, the unemployment rate in the Czech Republic was the lowest in the EU at 4.0%, and the poverty rate is the second lowest.
Total revenue refers to the sum of individual income taxes, business income taxes and other tax revenues a government collects over a given period of time, usually one year. Gross domestic product is the total value of goods and services a nation’s economy produces. Total revenue tends to grow as GDP grows. Conversely, when there is an economic downturn, revenues usually decrease. This becomes important when total revenues are compared to government spending.
The telecom market is expected to generate CAGR growth of 3.4% in next five years. The growth is expected to lead by growth in data revenue. Positive growth in fixed and mobile data usage and increase in pay-TV adoption will further support the market. Telecom service revenue in the Czech Republic is estimated to generate USD 3.4 billion in 2016 and to register CAGR growth of 3.4% during 2016-2021. The growth will be mainly driven by the data (fixed and mobile) and pay-TV segments. O2 and T-Mobile will further drive the country’s telecom market in 2016. Operators are focusing on investing in IoT/M2M initiatives, LTE network expansion and improving broadband speeds to cement their market positions.

Spurt in Broadband Adoption in Developing Countries: Ken Research

Ken Research has announced latest publication titled “National Broadband Plans in Asia-Pacific: Focus on Bridging the Digital Divide to Spur Economic Growth” which discuss scope of broadband in Asian region. It gives an understanding of the national broadband plans adopted by the governments in APAC region. The report analyses guidelines set under NBPs such as targets, technology, funding and role of governments as well as private operators. The report investigates NBPs in APAC countries. The report analyses targets, technologies, funding strategies and role of government and private sector in achieving the goals of NBPs.
Higher mobile and fixed broadband penetration is a key ingredient in national competitiveness, where citizens are given easier and cheaper access to government services such as education, healthcare, public utilities, and environmental management, among others.
The National Broadband in Asia Pacific is very well supported by ITU; institute is responsible for issues related to Information and Communication Technologies. There has been a huge change in the number of users of internet in last 15 years in developed countries and also in developing countries. In developing countries there is rapid increase in number of internet users than in developed countries. A study revealed that the spike in mobile broadband adoption in the Philippines contributes to about 6.9% of the country’s GDP annually. Countries such as India, China, Malaysia, Taiwan and Vietnam among others have goals to extend broadband access, while countries including Indonesia and China have also defined minimum speed of broadband services in their respective NBPs.
Rapidly upgrading technology is also one of the important factor behind improving adoption of broadband driven by changing preferences and busy lifestyle. The Philippines Digital Strategy replaced the Philippines ICT Roadmap, which retained continuity in the same broad themes (e-government, cyber-services, human capital, infrastructure), developed a more in-depth focus, specifically on the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) industry, marginalized communities and universal service.
global-broadband-sector-analysis
Asia Pacific comes on the fourth position from the five sub heads divided by the ICT. Mobile broadband Penetration levels are the highest in Europe and the America. Some of the Brands are also taking initiative for the National Broadband Campaign Launched by ICT in October 2011. Huawei and the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) jointly hosted the first Asia Pacific Exchange on Broadband Regulation and Policy at the ITU Telecom World 2016 in Bangkok. They also released the White Paper on Broadband Regulation and Policy in Asia-Pacific Region: Facilitating Faster Broadband Deployment. Speakers at the exchange called for more comprehensive broadband policies to guide development and speed the rollout of national broadband networks, as the basis for growth in the digital economy. 
The integration of digital into telecommunications (Digital Conclusion) can serve as a gateway to unprecedented opportunities. Meanwhile, this integration can also lead to various forms of threat that discourages the convergence of technologies in telecommunications. Therefore, the cooperation at the regional and international levels should be promoted to support the emergence of effective cyber technology and provide chances for people to use secure ICT devices and applications.

What is the Impact of US FinTech on Banks: Ken Research

The pursuit of customer centricity has become a main priority for all sorts of financial institutions. The digital consumer’s preference for a superior customer experience, quick response and convenience has accelerated the products and solutions offered by FinTech companies.
Disruptive Effect
Although banks have been slow to adopt technological changes owing to security issues, banking has been one of the sectors that is most resistant to disruption by technology. Retail, media and travel are three of the many sectors that have been significantly disrupted by technological shifts. Banking had largely remained unharmed due to strict regulatory barriers. However, public trust and confidence in this sector is quite low presently and banks and have been hit by sanctions and political rebuke.
Online payments are still a cumbersome process with users needing to type in usernames, passwords, 16 digits from the credit card and other things. Payment wallets and payment gateways have transformed the way customer make payments.
us-fintech-market
Consumer banking, fund transfer and payments are the sectors that are at high risk of disruption by the FinTech industry in the next 5 years. Emergence of online platforms has allowed individuals and businesses to lend and borrow between each other. Establishment of alternative credit models, use of non-traditional data sources and powerful data analytics to value risks, quick disbursement of loans and low operating costs have allowed the FinTech companies to flourish. Moreover, technology driven payment processes and digital wallets that enable easier payments have led to increased use of smartphone and other devices to transfer money and make payments.
Collaborative Effect
Traditional financial institutions are aware of their inefficiencies, slow processes and high fixed costs involved into every transaction. FinTech companies are not just bringing concrete solutions to consumers but also empowering them by providing new services which can be delivered with the use of technological applications. Digital services have been able to address their needs in a more convenient way than traditional nine-to-five financial institutions. Although FinTech companies have been chiefly successful in the transaction and lending aspect of the banking industry, they have had almost negligible effect on traditional banking operations such as deposits and large volume loans.
It is highly unlikely for FinTech companies to replace traditional banks and both can co-exist in a symbiotic relationship…
Collaboration between FinTech and traditional institutions can be an effective way to identify challenges and opportunities as well as to gain a deeper understanding on complementing each other.
How has the Equity Crowdfunding Market Placed?
Crowd funding involves individuals who pool money using a platform to fund the projects by other people or organizations and Equity crowdfunding involves trading equity of a company for the cash collected by the investors. Till 2015, the regulations in the U.S. only permitted accredited entrepreneurs to raise money from equity crowdfunding. These investors have to meet certain levels of wealth, established by the SEC. However, in the near future the SEC would make it legal for entrepreneurs to raise money from the individuals who are not professional investors as well.
The major players in the market include EquityNet, Fundable, Angel List and Crowdfunder with a market share of ~%, ~%, ~% and ~% respectively Equity crowdfunding have observed rapid growth in last few years especially after JOBS act passed in 2012 owing to the above propelling factors. This is coupled with higher comparative regulations in collecting equity funds from other sources. The other important factor which provided an impetus to the equity crowd funding market is the growth of startups in the country and also the implication that the entrepreneurs can move up from seed funding to different levels of funding. This provides them with easy access to the required capital.
The government has been looking forward to boost the confidence for the investors to invest in the market. The title 3 of JOBS act’s regulation CF passed in May 2016 has already allowed the individual investors to invest in the market, further rules and regulations would definitely help boost the investor confidence such as the platforms would have to purchase a fidelity bond of at least USD 100,000 as insurance for crowd funding. However these steps will impact the marketplaces by increasing their operational costs.
In the short run the market would incline at a rapid rate on the back of increased investments by the individual investors, pro investor regulations of the government and increased data availability. This would help the market grow to USD ~billion by 2017.
Further in the longer run, the realization of the disadvantages to the unsophisticated investors, inclined interest rates and higher interest of the institutions would collectively have a dampening impact on the market and slow down the growth rate of deal values in the US Equity Crowdfunding space and lead the market to USD ~billion by 2020.
