| description |
The 15 year licenses of four mobile
operators in Bangladesh; Grameenphone, Banglalink, Robi, and
Citycell are due to expire in November 2011. The remaining
two other mobile operators, state owned Teletalk and Airtel,
were issued licenses in 2004 and 2005 and these are not due
for renewal until 2019 and 2020 respectively. The World Bank
has asked Coleago Consulting Limited (Coleago) to prepare a
report on international best practice for spectrum renewal
and pricing and to analyze the Bangladesh Telecommunication
Regulatory Commission (BTRC) proposals in light of best
practice. The mobile industry has changed dramatically in
the intervening years and so license renewal provides
regulators with the opportunity to update relevant
regulation to better align the licensing framework and
license conditions with the mobile industry of today and to
accommodate future developments. In this report the author
have surveyed a number of jurisdictions and examined both
successful and not so successful spectrum renewal processes
in order to derive a set of international principles of best
practice for spectrum renewal and pricing. In doing so the
author have also sought to identify best regulatory practice
in a broader sense as successful spectrum renewal processes
depend, in part, on being conducted within a robust and
effective overall regulatory regime. This report covers: the
process of spectrum renewal including both administered and
market based approaches; and alternative methods for pricing spectrum. |
