The authority has given the green light to agreements made by TIM, Fastweb, Tiscali and KKR for access to the FiberCop network, reference point of the Italian infrastructure for optical fiber. According to the Authority, in fact, these agreements do not undermine competition and do not create obstacles, even in the medium and long term, in the wholesale market for fixed network telecommunications.

This agreement could lead to a “rapid modernization of the country’s fixed telecommunications infrastructure” as verified by the Competition Authority. These agreements are based on the possibility of reducing the barriers for the acquisition of customers, ie operators in the telco sector who will use the network, and favoring the development of infrastructures in Italy.
