Abstract

The EC and the different NRAs are studying the geographical scope of the markets included in the EC Recommendation. That is the case of Ofcom in UK, where the obligations imposed on the SMP Operator have been relieved in particular areas of the country. The article presents different studies which relate regulation, welfare and investment which pave the way to market segmentation.
