Title: TELECOMMUNICATIONS CHALLENGES IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES-ASYMMETRIC INTERCONNECTION CHARGES FOR RURAL AREAS Condition: New EAN: 9780821357842 ISBN: 9780821357842 Publisher: World Bank Publications Format: Paperback Type: Paperback Release Date: 30/04/2004 Language: English Country/Region of Manufacture: US Genre: Films & TV Author: No Author Release Year: 2004 Description: Rural telecommunications are usually believed to be unprofitable and therefore chronically under-invested. The author challenges this view and sets out to present reasons why regulators should consider implementing fairer cost-based interconnection arrangements between urban and rural network operators, which could significantly improve the business case for rural network operators. Specifically, a regime of geographically de-averaged asymmetric termination charges that reflect the higher costs rural operators face is proposed. A wide range of related issues are investigated before the author concludes that asymmetric termination charges could be implemented practically. Missing Information?
