The revenue assurance market in the UAE has witnessed substantial growth, primarily due to its expansion. The rise in internet penetration is one of the major factors attributing to the market growth in the country. As internet usage continues to develop, businesses operating in the country are expected to continue their operations online, leading to more and more digital payments. Furthermore, according to the analysis of a prominent consulting firm, at the beginning of 2023, the UAE boasted a staggering 99% internet penetration, with approximately 9.38 million individuals actively using the internet in the country. Such trends are anticipated to propel the revenue assurance market growth in the near future. Additionally, according to Ookla's data, the median mobile internet connection speed in the UAE experienced a gain of 2.3%, equivalent to an increase of 3.08 Mbps, during the twelve months leading up to the start of 2023. Thus, the growing internet penetration fosters the revenue assurance market growth in the region.
Based on industry vertical, the revenue assurance market is segmented into BFSI, hospitality, telecom, utilities, and others. The telecom segment held the largest share in 2022. In the highly competitive and ever-evolving telecommunications industry, revenue assurance is critical for telecom operators. With an increasing complexity of services, billing systems, and revenue streams, telecom companies face significant challenges in ensuring accurate revenue collection. Telecom companies operate in a highly competitive market where the slightest revenue leakage can significantly impact profitability. Revenue assurance efforts help identify and rectify revenue leakages caused by billing errors, system glitches, or fraudulent activities. By plugging these leaks, telecom operators can maximize their revenue streams and improve their financial performance.
The telecom sector is particularly vulnerable to revenue fraud due to its complex billing systems and vast customer base. Revenue assurance practices enable identifying and preventing fraudulent activities such as SIM card cloning, subscription fraud, and bypassing billing systems. By implementing robust fraud detection mechanisms, telecom companies can safeguard their revenue and reputation. According to a recent survey by a prominent auditing firm, telecom operators are experiencing revenue leakage ranging from 0.5–10%, resulting in significant financial losses. Additionally, a global survey of over 90 telecom fraud experts earlier this year revealed that telecom operators risk losing nearly US$ 300 billion in uncollected revenues and fraud. Approximately US$ 135 billion of this estimated loss can be attributed to revenue leakage. All such factors are boosting the growth of the telecom sector in the revenue assurance market.
