Analyst Opinion

The OTT Video market in Serbia is experiencing significant growth and development, driven by changing customer preferences and the increasing availability of high-speed internet connections. Customer preferences in Serbia are shifting towards on-demand video streaming services, as consumers seek convenience and flexibility in their entertainment choices.

With the rise of smartphones and tablets, more people are watching videos on their mobile devices, and this trend is expected to continue in the coming years. Additionally, the younger generation in Serbia is more inclined towards digital platforms and prefers to consume content online rather than through traditional TV channels. Trends in the market indicate a growing demand for local and regional content in Serbia.

While international content still holds a significant share in the market, there is a rising interest in locally produced movies, TV shows, and documentaries. This trend can be attributed to the increasing quality and popularity of Serbian content, as well as the desire of viewers to connect with stories and characters that are closer to their own culture and experiences. Furthermore, the availability of subtitles and dubbing options in multiple languages has made local content more accessible to a wider audience.

Local special circumstances in Serbia also contribute to the development of the OTT Video market. The country has a well-established telecommunications infrastructure, with a high penetration rate of internet and mobile services. This provides a solid foundation for the growth of OTT Video platforms, as it ensures a reliable and fast internet connection for users.

Additionally, the relatively low cost of data plans and the affordability of smartphones make it easier for consumers to access and enjoy OTT Video services. Underlying macroeconomic factors in Serbia, such as increasing disposable incomes and a growing middle class, also play a role in the expansion of the OTT Video market. As people have more discretionary income, they are willing to spend on entertainment and leisure activities, including subscription-based video streaming services.

Furthermore, the COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the adoption of digital entertainment platforms, as people spend more time at home and seek alternative sources of entertainment. In conclusion, the OTT Video market in Serbia is experiencing growth and development due to changing customer preferences, the demand for local content, local special circumstances, and underlying macroeconomic factors. As the market continues to evolve, it is expected that more players will enter the industry and offer a wider range of content options to cater to the diverse needs and preferences of Serbian consumers.
