Countries with fully liberalized
telecommunications markets have adopted different mixes of
antitrust and sector-specific regulatory instruments. Does
the balance between the two approaches matter for
competitiveness? Drawing on the experiences of Australia,
Chile, New Zealand, the United Kingdom, and the United

get the balance right tend to have more competitive
telecommunications markets. |
