OECD Broadband Portal


This portal is directly accessible at http://www.oecd.org/sti/ict/broadband.


The OECD broadband portal provides access to a range of broadband-related statistics gathered by the OECD. Policy makers must examine a range of indicators which reflect the status of individual broadband markets in the OECD. The OECD has indentified five main categories which are important for assessing broadband markets.

3. Coverage and Geography
3a. Broadband penetration and density (Dec. 2007) New
