Leading TV brands to increase reliance on panel suppliers in Taiwan and China in 2016, says IHS

Leading global TV brands Samsung Electronics and LG Electronics, seeking to complete their product lineups, increase back-up supply and boost savings, plan to rely less on their captive panel suppliers and turn to outsourcing instead. The two South Korea TV brands made up 41% of the total panel shipments of Samsung Display and LG Display in 2015, down from 46% in 2014. The figure will decline even further to 37% in 2016, according to IHS.
