SNL Kagan’s newest study, "Global Multichannel Special Report: Trends in LatAm Telecom Insurgence," explores pay-TV competition in Latin America and how international telecoms Telefónica and Telmex are capitalizing on market opportunities created by digital cable’s slow emergence in the region. Despite a cloudy regulatory environment, both players have been actively entering new markets. According to SNL Kagan, Telefónica’s LatAm pay-TV investments include cable and MMDS buyouts, as well as launches of independent DTH platforms.
