Italy: Telecom Italia Restructuring—Myth and Reality

Europe Analyst Juliano Torii identifies the likely market impact and final outcome of Telecom Italia’s recently announced restructuring. He argues that the plan, motivated by strategy and regulation rather than its sustainable debt load, does not spell the end of the group’s fixed-mobile convergence efforts.

Portugal: PT in Play—The Danger of Holistic Thinking

Senior Analyst Thomas Dorr Abreu analyzes some of the conditions set forth by the agency for Sonae’s takeover of PT and argues that they ignore the liberalization processes already under way.
