Vafer can assist clients with competition law issues in the broadcasting and communications sphere.
Economic reforms influence communications: privatisation changes the ownership strictures of the audiovisual market, while liberalisation provides for the mechanisms enabling the legal conditions for competition.
Competition law elements in connection with market forces may be applied at various levels; Vafer can help regulators, operators and other media stakeholders in all aspects of audio-visual competition law in a convergent technological environment of new media, including the allocation of the frequency spectrum and the obligation of universal service provision.
