5 Share of revenue Revenue management systems: worldwide market shares Overall revenue management market summary by region, with 2011 comparison Figure 3: Revenue management revenue by region, worldwide, 2011 and 2012 [Source: Analysys Mason, 2013] 1 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% 27.3% 27.6% 37.7% 36.8% 8.5% 8.4% 26.5% 27.2% APAC EMEA LATAM NA Key: APAC = Asia Pacific; LATAM = Latin America; EMEA = Europe, the Middle East and Africa; NA = North America. Summary for 2012 NA s share of the worldwide revenue management market grew slightly, driven by growth in the mobile broadband market as a result of significant LTE roll-outs. LATAM s market share remained flat despite high growth in subscriber numbers, largely because of aggressive pricing. EMEA s market share declined by almost a percentage point because of the lingering effects of economic instability in Western Europe. APAC s share increased by 0.3 percentage points, driven by steady growth in subscriber numbers. Outlook for 2013 Economic conditions in Western Europe will restrict EMEA to low growth rates despite higher growth rates in the Middle East and Africa. Emerging markets particularly in LATAM will increase their market shares. NA will continue to recover, driving up year-on-year growth in most revenue management sub-segments in Growth in spending will slow in APAC s emerging markets, as new subscribers become less abundant.
