− Productivity gains in firms
− Higher household income
2. Job creation− Direct jobs
− Indirect jobs
− Induced jobs
3. Public welfare improvements

Contribution to GDP

Kohman2011
Qiang2009
ITU Universe 2011
Czernich2011
Kongaut 2014
Deloitte2012
Every time a country`s broadband
speed doubles, the country`s GDP rises
0.3 per cent
Increasing the broadband penetration
by 10% stimulates GDP per capita by
0.9-1.5%
A 10% increase in mobile penetration
increases TFP in the long run by 4.2
percentage points
10% increase in broadband penetration
is yielded an additional 1.38% in GDP
growth
Impact on GDP varies widely, from
0.25% (OECD) to 1.38% for every
increase in 10% of penetration.
Broadband speed has greater impact in
countries with lower income than
countries with higher income
