Unique mobile subscribers in Sub-Saharan Africa are expected to grow from 420 million at the end of 2016 to 535 million in 2020, although only 40 percent will have mobile Internet penetration in that period, and the surge is forecast to make it the fastest-growing global region. Subscriber growth is expected to be boosted by currently under-represented segments. These include the under-16 age group, which accounts for more than 40 percent of the population in many countries, and women, who are currently 17 percent less likely to have a mobile than their male counterparts. Meanwhile local mobile operators have invested some USD 37 billion in their networks over the past five years, mainly to deploy new 3G and 4G mobile broadband networks. Concentrated and underpenetrated markets, such as the Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Nigeria and Tanzania,are expected to account for half of the 115 million new subscribers in the Sub-Saharan Africa by 2020.
