Regions Served > Africa and Middle East

Our cases in the region have involved Public Private Partnerships (serving as Transaction Advisor in one case),  market strategy and financial modeling for a wholesale operator, the introduction of a digital ID, and 5G assessments in two of the region's countries. 

We have also assessed the regulatory and taxation frameworks in 20 countries, performed a forensic analysis of the factors affecting mobile money usage (using data analytics, survey research, focus groups and mystery shopping) and served as industry specialists on a $4.6 billion valuation and due diligence of a mobile operator.

In addition, we have examined  the universal service and e-waste management policy frameworks of several countries as well as evaluated related implementation initiatives, including digital literacy training projects, “free smartphone” programs, and deployment of public Wi-Fi sites.
