Turkey has a rapidly developing telecommunications market due to its population size and density. Market progress is also vigorously supported by the government, and controlled by the regulatory organization, meant to make the industry correspondent to European standards. To become free telecom market had to be liberalized, and the process was promoted by the state. At first the industry had been ruled by state-owned monopoly Turk Telecom, which, however, was further privatized and deregulated to provide competition in the sphere. In addition, several licenses were granted to companies to provide alternative access to telephone lines. However, despite the measures taken, it still remains the main player in the fixed-line industry and Turkish telecom market in common. Mobile industry has reached the peak of its maturity, with network penetration being nearly 100%. With mobile number portability recently introduced the further growth will likely go faster. Fierce competition in the market provides quality service offers. The industry is increasingly supported by foreign investments. The recent attempt in increasing profit by introducing postpaid mobile services has been made by all three mobile operators. For the present moment subscriber base has grown to 68 million users, and shows a slower tendency to increase, due to market maturity. 3G technology licenses have been issued to introduce the up-to-date standard in the country, and the launch is prospected to take place till the end of 2009.

Mobile market is represented by three main players, with Turkcell having a share slightly higher than 55%, and leading the industry. The company would likely be the first to introduce 3G standard to the market. Vodafone takes the second place with nearly 25% of market share, followed by Turk Telecom subsidiary, Avea, which accounts for almost 20% of subscriber base. Turkcell shows a steady tendency to enhance its business, with average revenue per user being the highest among its competitors. However, Vodafone is rather strong to take a part of subscribers over from Turkcell in the following years. Broadband Internet sector is dominated by Turk Telekom, which owns the major share of network capabilities, and benefits from ever growing Internet population. Even though network coverage in the region is lower than average, strong demand provides steady development of e-services in the country.
