• Margins improve
because MVNO
can optimise tariffs
• Greater wholesale
margin & reducing
leverage from MNO
• Wholesale margins
low because MNO
gets paid for all
billing services
• All leverage power
with MNO
Customer control
increases with direct
provisioning &
control of services
• Leverage largely with
MVNO when MVNO
“owns” the customer
in HLR database
• Could move
customers to
alternate carrier
MNO independent
* Valuation is a function of “leverage” & “control”
