Telecommunications in run up to 2020

This contribution highlights some of the conclusions made by Ecorys in two studies that were commissioned by the European Commission: Truly Internal Market for e-communications (2012) and Future electronic communications markets subject to ex-ante regulation (2013). This contribution translates these conclusions into challenges ahead for the next Commission as well as for regulators. The first challenge relates to unlocking sources for investment, the second challenge relates to maintaining access regulation in the case of infrastructure competition.
