Analyst Opinion

The OTT Video market in Ecuador has been experiencing significant growth in recent years, driven by changing customer preferences and the increasing availability of high-speed internet.

Customer preferences:
Ecuadorian customers are increasingly turning to OTT Video platforms for their entertainment needs. This is due to several factors, including the convenience of on-demand streaming, the wide variety of content available, and the ability to watch videos on multiple devices. Additionally, the younger generation in Ecuador is more technologically savvy and prefers to consume content online rather than through traditional television channels.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the OTT Video market in Ecuador is the rise of local and regional content. Ecuadorian viewers are showing a growing interest in content that reflects their own culture and experiences. This has led to the emergence of local OTT platforms that focus on producing and distributing Ecuadorian films, TV shows, and documentaries. These platforms are gaining popularity and are attracting a loyal customer base. Another trend in the market is the increasing competition among international OTT Video providers. Global giants such as Netflix and Amazon Prime Video have entered the Ecuadorian market and are investing in the production of original content tailored to the local audience. This has led to a wider range of options for Ecuadorian viewers and has increased the overall quality of content available on these platforms.

Local special circumstances:
Ecuador has a rapidly expanding internet infrastructure, with increasing access to high-speed internet in both urban and rural areas. This has played a crucial role in the growth of the OTT Video market, as it allows for seamless streaming and a better user experience. Additionally, the affordability of internet plans and the availability of affordable smartphones have made OTT Video platforms accessible to a larger segment of the population.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The growing OTT Video market in Ecuador is also influenced by macroeconomic factors. The country has experienced steady economic growth in recent years, which has led to an increase in disposable income. As a result, more Ecuadorian households are able to afford OTT Video subscriptions and are willing to spend on entertainment options. In conclusion, the OTT Video market in Ecuador is witnessing significant growth due to changing customer preferences, the availability of high-speed internet, and the entry of international players. Local content and increased competition among providers are key trends in the market. The expanding internet infrastructure and the country's economic growth are also contributing to the development of the OTT Video market in Ecuador.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on Traditional TV & Home Video and OTT (over-the-top) Services. All monetary figures refer to consumer spending on digital goods or subscriptions in the respective segment. This spending factors in discounts, margins, and taxes.

Modeling approach / Segment size:

The segment size is determined through a bottom-up approach. We use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, survey results from our primary research (e.g., Consumer Insights), as well as performance factors (e.g., user penetration, price per product, usage) to analyze the markets. To estimate the segment size for each country individually, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific industry associations, such as GDP, number of internet users, and internet consumption.

Forecasts:

We apply a variety of forecasting techniques, depending on the behavior of the relevant segment. For instance, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption.
