Communications, media and Internet Concentration in the South Cone 2019-2021
The article analyzes market concentration in communication, internet and media industries in Argentina, Brazil and Chile between 2019- 2021 using CR4 and HHI indexes. It concludes that the Network Media Economy is highly concentrated. The Internet Core applications sectors operate in an almost monopolistic position. The telecommunications and Internet infrastructure sector collects the majority of revenues of the Network Media Economy with very high concentration in Wireless, Wireline and a little less, but still very high, in Multichannel video distribution and ISPs. Media sectors show significant concentration in audiovisual services and low concentration in online press.
