Competion puts telecoms under pressure

Article Abstract:

This article focuses on the gradual liberalization of the telecommunications market and how it has created greater competition between rival groups, all motivated to get a share of the market. The author, Paola Subacchi, discusses the trend of companies having to restructure in order to offer better services at competitive prices, and to seek international partnerships to become more global. The article also discusses how privatization in some areas of Europe is still at the beginning.

Article Abstract:

The privatisation of the waste disposal service of Frankfurt City Council was handled by Metzler, which formed a private company to sell off 49% of the service. Metzler had to ensure the 1,600 waste disposal service employees were in agreement with the proposed privatisation plan, taking a year for the terms to be ratified. The sale of 49% of shares raised 26 million pounds sterling, guaranteeing Frankfurt a profitable and reliable waste disposal service.
