A group of leading European mobile operators have responded to a European Commission inquiry on 5G policy by arguing a lighter regulatory touch, and a focus on incentives for investment are required.
The group of mobile operators, supported by some big industry vertical partners, also argues that “sufficient spectrum, licensed in time and at reasonable prices” also is required. None of that would come as a surprise.
The industry wants “fewer and simpler rules” where it comes to wholesale access to key infrastructure that is not replicable through competitive investment. In other words, as often is the case, retailers want wholesale access to be simple and fast.
Mobile operators also want better investment return frameworks, in contrast to prior EC policies that emphasized competition (to produce lower prices and other consumer benefits).
