There are 3 mobile operators with GSM licenses in Iraq and Kurdistan: Zain Iraq, a unit of Kuwait's Zain, Qatar Telecom (Qtel) subsidiary AsiaCell, and France Telecom affiliate Korek Telecom. The penetration rate in the telecom sector stands around 75-78%, which is below penetration rates of the other Arab countries where it is 100% (for example 110% internet penetration rate in Saudi Arabia). The telecom sector experiences an exponential growth of 11.6%, where the penetration rate went in less than 7 years from 5% to 75%. The largest operator in the market is Zain with a 53% market share, followed by AsiaCell with a 31% market share and Korek Telecom with a 15.7% market share.
The sector is regulated by Communications and Media Commission (CMC) that according to the Iraqi Constitution, CMC is an independent authority that is not associated to any other governmental entity. It aims to regulate and develop the media and telecommunications sector in Iraq under the modern international criteria, albeit many observers claim that the Ministry of Communications de-facto controls the Commission.
The future of the telecom industry in Iraq remains uncertain. The experts predict the deployment of the 3G in the Kurdistan Region in 2013.
