TIM Brasil questions timing of Brazil's 4G auction

摘要

Brazilian mobile operator TIM Brasil has published a statement questioning the national telecoms regulator, Anatel's, decision to forge ahead with the sale of 4G frequencies in the 450MHz and 2.5GHz bands, calling it 'a premature initiative'. Highlighting what it sees as potential risks in the plan, TIM Brasil argues that the watchdog's bidding documents contain elements that could adversely impact competitiveness among potential bidders.
