Full liberalization of
telecommunications markets provides scope for relying
largely on general antitrust rules and institutions for
economic regulation. But at least for a time after
liberalization, sector-specific rules and institutions are
likely to be needed in some areas, including
interconnection. This Note draws lessons from the experience
of New Zealand. After fully liberalizing its
telecommunications market in the late 1980s, the country
relied primarily on antitrust instruments to regulate
interconnection until 2001, when it introduced a new regime
putting heavier emphasis on sector-specific regulation. |
