Abstract

I am going to briefly outline this morning a study that London Economics, in association with the PricewaterhouseCoopers International Survey Unit, undertook for DG Information Society, and which was completed about a year ago.1 I am also going to discuss some of the reactions to the study, and to briefly describe some ongoing research in this area.

London Economics and PricewaterhouseCoopers (2006): “An Assessment of the Regulatory Framework for Electronic Communications: Growth and Investment in the EU e-Communications Sector”, Report for DG-InfSo. The opinions expressed here do not necessarily represent the views of the European Commission.
