With the tower transaction deal flow in SSA slowing during 2015, TowerXchange surveys and summarises the landscape of opportunity both in SSA and the emerging tower market in MENA. We examine passive infrastructure monetisation to date at 23 different MNOs. Where tower deals have been completed, what deal structure has been preferred, what was the balance between cash released and opex stabilisation (and why?) What’s left for towercos to buy?
