The Telecommunications Act of 1996: The “Costs” of Managed Competition
Author: Dale E. Lehman
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461543150
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 134
Book Description
The Telecommunications Act of 1996 envisioned a competitive free-for-all in the U.S. telecommunications industry with removal of barriers to entry in local telecommunications markets and the lifting of the artificial restrictions that kept the Regional Bell Operating Companies (RBOCs) out of the interLATA long-distance market. After close to 5 years, only one RBOC has been granted permission (controversially) to enter the interLATA market, and local competition has yet to provide most consumers with meaningful choices. In addition, the wave of mergers across the industry has raised the specter of putting the former Bell System back together again. Policymakers now openly question whether the Act can deliver what it promised. Three principal themes are developed in this book. First, there has been a coordination failure between Congress and the FCC in translating the principles embodied in the Act into practice. The authors provide evidence for this by analyzing stock market reactions to legislative and regulatory actions. This coordination failure was largely predictable, given the ambiguity in the Act, as well as conflicting jurisdictions between the FCC and the states. Second, the Act calls for wholesale prices to be `based on cost.' Regulators adopted a costing standard (TELRIC) that provides a means to subsidize competitive entry in local telephone service markets. The ready adoption of the TELRIC standard by regulators is shown to be tied to the third theme: price cap regulation provides regulators with `insurance' against the adverse effects of competition in local telephone markets. Statistical analysis reveals that regulators in price cap states set uniformly lower unbundled network element prices (lower barriers to entry) in comparison with regulators in rate-of-return and earnings sharing states. The result is a triumph of regulatory processes over market processes - the antithesis of the purpose of the Act.

Telecommunications Demand Modelling
Author: Alain De Fontenay
Publisher: North Holland
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 514
Book Description
The papers in this volume cover a broad scope. They were selected with two criteria in mind: firstly, that demand analysis in telecommunications would benefit from the study of market structure, as well as from a focus on the details of customer choice; and secondly that a wide variety of techniques from various disciplines should be brought to bear. The volume is divided into three sections. Section I covers end user demand and focuses on the individual choice problem. The techniques discussed cover both experimental psychology and the usual economic choice models, and range from theoretical models of the choice process to econometric and measurement issues. Papers which apply novel techniques to other industries have been included in an attempt to bring a diversity of approaches to the attention of telecommunications specialists. The staple area of telecommunications demand analysis - the econometrics of market behavior is covered in Section II. Three outstanding papers in econometric theory have been included, as well as novel applications to the long distance market.
