The Australian telecommunications industry is one of the highest value markets in Asia Pacific and even the world, underpinned by high incomes and strong uptake of higher value services such as broadband and smartphone handsets. However, subscription growth opportunities are severely limited in the years ahead due to the highly saturated nature of the market. In 2014, we believe 4G offerings would take centre stage, given the proliferation of smart devices and growth in demand for high-speed data services. This should provide lift the near-term ARPU for mobile operators.

Thailand's political stalemate has had a devastating impact on economic growth, and with no signs of a possible resolution in the near term, we expect economic activity to remain depressed in H114. Latest data published by the Bank of Thailand (BoT) showed that the Thai economy expanded by 0.6% year-on-year in Q413, translating into full year growth of just 2.9% for 2013. Crucially, we highlight the sharp contraction in gross fixed capital formation (GFCF) and private consumption in Q413 (-11.3% and -4.5% y-o-y, respectively), which suggests that businesses and households are keeping their spending plans on hold as they await further clarity on the political situation.

Despite the lack of growth opportunities in terms of subscriptions, the Netherlands remains a dynamic market with extensive roll-out and uptake of wireless data services. In the wireline segment, the popularity of bundled services in the Netherlands has mitigated the decline in fixed-line subscriptions through fixed-to-mobile substitution. Furthermore, the Netherlands' broadband market is one of the most developed in Western Europe in terms of advanced infrastructure deployment and high penetration of wireline and wireless broadband services.

The government's final decision on how to address the wind down of nationalised lender Hypo Alpe Adria (HAA) will have a significant impact on the country's economic outlook over the coming years. We expect the government to establish a 'bad bank' to deal with HAA's toxic assets (totalling over EUR17bn), in a move that will improve confidence in the banking sector, but curtail the government's ability to increase current spending. However, we believe this effect will be mitigated by an uptick in private consumption, on the back of low interest rates, rising house prices and a recovery in consumer lending, as well as an improving export outlook driven by a revival in the wider eurozone economy.
