These markets are not on the whole very competitive or fast moving, although rates of growth have been high. Cote d'Ivoire stands out as one of the most dynamic markets in this region, with multiple operators and several strong players. It is little wonder that France Telecoms chose this country in which to launch its Orange Money mobile payment service. Sadly no data is available on the rate of take up, but the operator is planning an expansion, and has said it is pleased with the success of the scheme Both Gabon and Senegal have seen an increase in competition in recent quarters, both having seen the launch of an additional mobile operator. Expresso is growing in Senegal, but has not made a massive dent in the market yet. Azure Gabon, a subsidiary of Bintel in the most advanced market in region, was forced to shut down just a few weeks after launching in Q309. It has since come online again, but the hiccup seems to have left its mark. Cameroon has announced plans to auction one or two more mobile licences. BMI welcomes this news as, as a duopoly, Cameroon is sadly under competitive. A new operator, preferably one of the big names, may enliven the market and bring about welcome new growth. Vodacom is having some problems in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) where it is embroiled in a long-running ownership dispute with a subsidiary company. The South African firm, now majority owned by the UK's Vodafone, is considering pulling out of the country if the dispute is not settled soon. The DRC is potentially an extremely lucrative market. However, there are obvious and considerable security and practicality problems with operating in such a large, unstable and geographically diverse country. Vodacom does remain the market leader, but apparently this is not enough of a draw to keep it there.
