The woes of telecom operators continue unabated – dwindling revenues, saturated market space and south bound margins just to name a few. For telcos’, the writing is on the wall – revenue from traditional sources are declining & bulk of the future growth is going to be driven by new access technologies like VoIP, VoLTE and Mobile data.
VoIP…telcos’ redeemer?
A recent study (The future of international wholesale) by Hot Telecom predicts that international wholesalers/aggregators transport 2/3rd of international voice traffic currently.
However, this is expected to grow to 80%, with telcos’ migrating their voice traffic to IPX from the traditional path. This represents a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.5% over the next 5 years. With regulators putting downward pressures on termination rates and growing CapEx needs to roll-out capacity, migrating to VoIP presents a great opportunity for telcos’ to remain in the race profitably. So, the question lurking now is…how will this be achieved?

“United we stand” goes the saying and when it comes to Bankai, unity is not just a way of life, but a killer combination, offering one of the most innovative solutions to address today’s problems of telcos. Over the past 2 decades and more, Bankai group has been building enterprises catering to wholesale voice origination and termination, retail and technology to win this battle on revenue and profitability.
