| NOTAS: | "What has been the economic impact of broadband and digital transformation in the Americas? The Economic Contribution of Broadband, Digitization and ICT Regulation: Econometric Modelling for the Americas looks at three areas: fixed and mobile broadband, digitization, and policy and regulatory frameworks. For each country studied, the report explores the level of ICT development and asks two key questions: Which technologies should become a policy priority? How should regulators ensure that policies are deployed to stimulate the development of the digital? The report concludes that a 10 per cent increase in fixed broadband penetration would lead to a 1.9 per cent increase in GDP per capita, while a 10 per cent drop in broadband prices would result in a more than 3.0 per cent boost to broadband adoption." |
