Study on the Explicative Variables of Broadband Penetration Rate

Using data on the 27 countries member of the European Union, we show that the countries capitals’ latitude and GDP per capita alone explain 53% of broadband penetration rate’s variations. Local Loop Unbundling (LLU) rate in percentage of broadband access and cable access in percentage of broadband access rate also seem to explain 17% of broadband penetration rate’s variations but the statistical analysis does not determine the way of the causality between these variables and broadband penetration rate. This influence of GDP per capita and of latitude is a particularity of fixed broadband since we do not find the same influence on mobile penetration. This study uses only public and easily available data.
