Fiber-broadband-intenet and its regional impact: An empirical investigation

No 122, CAWM Discussion Papers from University of Münster, Münster Center for Economic Policy (MEP)

Abstract: I analyze a quasi-natural experiment of fiber broadband rollout in a rural German area. The analysis particularly investigates the impact on real estate values. I find that there are strong and significant effects of fiber broadband deployment. These indicate that there are relevant personal benefits from broadband deployment for customers. Therefore, the findings add to the literature of evaluation of broadband infrastructure investment.
