Global telecommunications regulatory reforms

Overview

Various regions are implementing reforms to modernize telecommunications infrastructure and enhance competition.

In Canada, the government launched the Telecom Competition Roadmap to lower service costs by reducing regional barriers and allowing smaller operators to rent capacity from major carriers. Simultaneously, French Polynesia introduced legislation to regulate mobile roaming and ensure equitable pricing across its archipelagos.

In Mexico and Puerto Rico, regulators are working to streamline deployment processes. Mexican authorities are addressing the duplication of requirements across different levels of government, following a Supreme Court ruling that federal authority governs infrastructure deployment. In Puerto Rico, officials are seeking to transition regulatory standards from legacy copper-era rules to frameworks that support fiber optics and smart networks.
