Market liberalisation and corporatisation/privatisation of incumbents l Process and impact of liberalisation: worldwide trends (Tuesday, Session 1) l Process and impact of commercialisation/privatisation: worldwide trends (Tuesday, Session 2) l Towards the future: what next for telecoms businesses? (Wednesday, Session 1)
Separation of regulatory and operational functions Of 188 ITU Member States: l 156 have separated posts & telecoms (32 have not) l 147 have separated regulatory and operational functions (41 have not) l 132 have a regulator which is independent of the operators in terms of finance and decisionmaking (in 56, it is not) l 83 have fully or partially privatised the incumbent operator (105 have not) l 38 have liberalised basic telecom services (150 have not)

The development gap: Impact of the changing international telecoms environment l Telecommunications development gap ð Narrowing between developed and middle-income developing countries ð Widening between middle-income developing countries and the Least Developed Countries (LDCs) ð New development gap emerging for advanced telecom services (Internet, broadband, multimedia) l Uneven pace of market liberalisation ð For instance, there are more telephone companies in the UK than the whole of Africa l Erosion of accounting rate system ð Traditional support for network roll-out

Key policy issues to be tackled l Interconnection ð How to manage the transition to a multi-player environment? l Internet ð Who really sets the rules? Who really gets benefits? l International settlements ð How to transition to a cost-oriented system while providing a “soft-landing” for developing countries? l International infrastructures ð How to ensure equal access at competitive rates? l Investment ð How to increase investment, esp in LDCs?
