IFT approves Telmex separation, America Movil to appeal

2018-03-06 11:03:00| Telecompaper Headlines

(Telecompaper) Mexico's telecom regulator IFT has approved a plan to separate America Movil's fixed-line Telmex and Telnor units as part of antitrust measures against the company. Creating a separate wholesale unit will allow Telmex to re-invest proceeds from line rentals in infrastructure upgrades, said the IFT. The company now has two years to carry out the separation and will have to present an asset and debt transfer plan during that time, added the regulator in a statement.

Mexico's IFT reinstates America Movil interconnection charges

2017-11-03 08:52:00| Telecompaper Headlines

(Telecompaper) Mexico's telecommunications watchdog IFT has voted to allow America Movil to once again start charging rivals interconnection fees for the first time in over three years. The decision comes after America Movil in August prevailed in one of its injunctions against the 2014 telecommunications reform that sought to curb its dominance by imposing a zero interconnection rate. However, the Mexican Supreme Court ruled that it should not be barred by law from charging competitors interconnection fees, with the IFT entrusted with setting the corresponding tariffs. In a statement, the regulator said America Movil can charge rival operators nearly 3 peso cents (MXN 0.028562) per minute for calls to its network starting 01 January, while competitors can charge just over 11 peso cents (MXN 0.112799) per minute for mobile calls to their networks.
