CURRENT STATE OF AFFAIRS
• Total Advertising Revenue for TV in 2010 was less
than USD 175 Million (Rs. 15 Billion)
• Zero Subscription Revenue – therefore entire
Industry running after Ad Revenue
• News Channels sensationalizing stories
• Entertainment Channels full of Ads
• Despite the above, most TV Channels are in Loss!
THE CHALLENGES!
• Pakistan market cannot afford 80+ TV Channels
• PEMRA needs to enforce regulatory framework
– Limit the number of Licenses considering supply & demand
– Implement Subscription generation for Channels as well as Cable Operators
– Remove illegal channels which provide unfair competition to local channels
• Content will drive Channel success and it is getting more and
more expensive
• The other big challenge for TV Industry is Distribution. Cable
Operators can carry less than 100 channels while more than
130 are available
WHAT THE INDUSTRY NEEDS TO DO
• Broadcasters must decide the following together with other
stakeholders
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
How to co-exist with Cable Operators where both parties benefit from
each other. This decision will rest mostly on how to increase
subscription revenue and divide it.
Work with PEMRA to stop airing of illegal content, thereby increasing
viewership for legal content
Limit New Licenses and create a market mechanism whereby new
licenses may be awarded only if market grows
Create self governed Editorial guidelines
Improve local capacity for Quality production – Invest in production
infrastructure (Institutes, facilities, equipment)
Thank you!
