The Swedish regulator, PTS, has ordered TeliaSonera, the Swedish incumbent, to cut prices on a number of wholesale telephony and broadband services. This is to increase market competition and choice for customers. The regulator is now working on setting up rules to encourage competition in the fixed-line market. Therefore, as TeliaSonera is a market leader, the PTS has now ordered the incumbent to allow other operators to purchase or lease products in the fixed network at cost prices. PTS is going to calculate and decide the price levels of the regulated products. This is not the first time that the PTS has reprimanded TeliaSonera for charging excessive prices for its products.
