MNVOs are emerging to cater for customer segments that can be overlooked by the major mobile network operators. They target diverse ethnic groups in specific regions, looking to leverage international calls to their country of origin and ethnic community specific content.

What is a MVNO
MVNOs work independently of mobile network operators (MNOs) and can set their own pricing structure subject to the rates they’ve agreed to pay MNOs. MVNOs do not own any core mobile network-related infrastructure such as radio access networks or mobile switching centers. MVNOs appear as roaming partners of overseas networks if they own their own home location register. Certain MVNOs also run their own billing and customer care solutions called business support systems.
