Analyst Opinion

The Media market in ASEAN is experiencing significant growth and development, driven by changing customer preferences, emerging trends, and local special circumstances.

Customer preferences:
Customers in ASEAN are increasingly demanding digital media content, with a growing preference for online streaming platforms and social media. This shift in preferences is driven by factors such as convenience, affordability, and access to a wide range of content. Additionally, there is a growing demand for localized content that reflects the cultural diversity of the region.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the media market in ASEAN is the rise of local content production. Local filmmakers, musicians, and content creators are gaining popularity and recognition, as they cater to the specific tastes and preferences of the ASEAN audience. This trend is also fueled by the availability of affordable production equipment and platforms for distribution. Furthermore, there is an increasing focus on producing content in local languages, which helps to engage and connect with the diverse population in the region. Another trend in the media market is the growing influence of social media platforms. Social media has become a powerful tool for content distribution and marketing, allowing media companies to reach a wider audience and engage with their customers in real-time. This trend is driven by the high internet penetration rate in ASEAN countries and the increasing popularity of mobile devices.

Local special circumstances:
The media market in ASEAN is shaped by the unique characteristics of each country in the region. For example, in countries like Indonesia and Thailand, traditional media such as television and radio still play a significant role due to the large rural population and limited internet access. On the other hand, countries like Singapore and Malaysia have a more developed digital infrastructure and a higher adoption rate of online media consumption.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The media market in ASEAN is also influenced by underlying macroeconomic factors. The region's rapid economic growth has led to an increase in disposable income and a growing middle class, which in turn drives consumer spending on media and entertainment. Additionally, the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) has facilitated cross-border trade and investment, allowing media companies to expand their reach and tap into new markets within the region. In conclusion, the media market in ASEAN is experiencing significant growth and development, driven by changing customer preferences, emerging trends, and local special circumstances. The rise of digital media, the demand for localized content, and the growing influence of social media are shaping the market landscape. Furthermore, the unique characteristics of each country in the region, as well as underlying macroeconomic factors, contribute to the overall growth and development of the media market in ASEAN.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on media spending (on traditional media as well as digital media). All monetary figures refer to consumer spending on digital goods or subscriptions in the respective segment. This spending factors in discounts, margins, and taxes.

Modeling approach / Market size:

Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on specific predefined factors for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, survey results from our primary research (e.g., Consumer Insights), as well as performance factors (e.g., user penetration, price per product, usage). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, number of internet users, and internet consumption. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption.

Additional notes:

The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is considered at a country-specific level. The data is modeled using current exchange rates. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. The market is updated twice a year.

Consumer Insights data is reweighted for representativeness.
