Press Release: International calls in Finland competitive: no new rules needed, confirms Commission

The European Commission on 18 July 2005 published a decision under Article 7 of the EU framework on electronic communications endorsing the findings of the Finnish national regulatory authority (Ficora) that the international calls markets in Finland were effectively competitive. International calls markets include all fixed telephone calls made from home by residential users and from the office by business users, to both fixed and mobile telephones outside the country. As a result of this Commission decision, Ficora would not have to impose any ex-ante regulation on these markets in Finland.
