Abstract

This chapter introduces the statistical analysis of a number of information and communication technologies (ICT) market indicators as a means to develop sound regulatory policies aiming to promote broadband take up. The chapter provides analysis of the concept of broadband, statistical analysis of ICT indicators, time series and cross-country series against broadband penetration, determination of conterminous factors with statistically significant influence over broadband penetration in European states, and derivation of calls for regulatory policy particular actions out of statistically significant relations. The overall aim of the chapter is to offer a way how ICT statistical data could be employed to suggest preconditions for possible practical solutions in the domain of broadband promotion and in this way to bring the rhetoric of statistics down to an operational level.
