A study prepared by WIK and commissionned by ECTA has been published today. This study examines the business case for fibre investment and assesses the effect of regulated wholesale charges on investment decisions, retail prices, competition and consumer welfare. The report concludes that, to stimulate rapid fibre deployment and take-up, regulators should signal significant reductions in copper wholesale charges whilst permitting the copper network to be rapidly switched off if open fibre is installed.
Noteworthy, another study prepared by Plum and commissionned by ETNO released a week ago concludes more or less the opposite ;-).
