Hi,
I have chosen topic 8 for my RAP.
Due to industry specific sectors i chose mobile telecommunication industry.
However I have problems in chosing my comparator.
My organisation is a foreign entity mobile service provider who is registered in Sri Lanka as a public limited company and listed in stock exchange.
Therefore the organisation has acquired subsisdiaries in Sri Lanka and is audited by the external auditors of Sri Lanka.
Hence all the secondary information is available due its listed status.
All the other mobile service provider are private companies registered in Sri Lanka whose head office is overseas.Hence the company is srilanka is merely a private company, subsidiary of the headoffice.
Therefore no individual fianncials are publicly available, only consolidated fianancials of the head office and all its subsidiaries available in there currency.
Hence comparing my orgainsation, local PLC is not probable with the other mobile service providers firstly due to non availability of fianancials and other due to being private companies.
But, there is only one PLC in srilanka which is goverment owned whose financials are publicly available. It provides mobile services, fixed telecommunications and other services.
My orgainsation is privately owned company which is PLC listed in stock exchange, whereas the comparator is a PLC owned by the goverment.
My fear is whether the comparision is possible between PRIVATE and GOVERMENT owned companies as explained above.
Eventhough my organisation fits into the category mobile telecommunication sector the comparator does not fit perfectly in the mobile telecommunication sector .
Can i continue with this?

Apart from what i mentinoed previously would the below work as i am feeling comfortable to work with local companies.

Hi
Thankyou!
Does topic 17 require primary information, is it possible to continue with secondary info alone? eg; annual reports
I attempted my degree under Topic 16 Risk management intially and did not receive a grade for my RAP
However, I have decided to resubmit my RAP.
I decided to to choose topic 8 and currenlty completed the initial chapters.
Inorder to continue with my Part 3 Analysis I am unable to find a competitor.
My organisation is in the mobiletelecommunication industry, it is a listed company hence financials of Sri Lanka are available publicly.Its head office being overseas, it has to publish the finanacials in srilanka since it listed in the stock xchange.
However, all other mobile service providers operating in srilanka are foreign entities which are all private companies registered in Sri Lanka, so only the consolidated financial statements are available fof their head office , for example ‘etisalat’ sevice provider head office is located at UAE so the financial statements are consolidated are published by head officce at UAE in there currency.I cannot obtain individual financials for Sri Lanka alone,besides dialog being a PLC and the rest being private companies, i doubt how i would proceed with it.
I am afraid that I cannot find a competitor in this case.And I am not that clear with, taking industry averages as i do not possess sample projects for this purpose.
Please be kind enough guide me in this regard.
