Broadband’s Worldwide attention: Several countries have recognized broadband as a keystone for development. Some of them have made, or are preparing, national broadband plans. South Korea has been one of the first countries in which broadband was considered as a country goal, betting for several platforms deployment. USA has made a National Broadband Plan -which is being discussed- with very ambitious goals: achieving, at least, 100 million household connections, with a speed of 100 Mbps.

Peruvian Telecommunications Evolution in Recent Years Strategy and Regulatory Vision in Recent Years OSIPTEL strategy has been focused in policies for promoting (in order of priority) : • Indirect competition: unattended areas, focusing policies on promoting competition for new users. • Direct competition: population that already has access to telecommunication services; target consumers are basically commercial and household users in high- density urban areas. • Appropriate convergence adoption. “Guidelines for Developing and Strengthen Competition and Growth of Telecommunication Services in Peru”, Ministry of Transport and Communications (MTC) - 2007. Strategic Plan 2007-2011 – OSIPTEL. Relevant Policies in Recent Years (1/2) Policies implemented in recent years have led to significant communications growth, accomplishing significant achievements in services such as mobile telephony. Besides, it has stimulated the establishment of a healthy environment for the future development of broadband in Peru. Some measures driven by OSIPTEL: • Substantial and gradual reduction in termination charges on mobile networks in 2005, and recently, in such regulation review, in 2010. • Regulation of wholesale bitstream access to broadband DSL , revised in 2008. • Price cap regulation for leased long distance lines (E1). Relevant Policies in Recent Years (2/2) • Establishment of the formula for fixing the payment for access and sharing of public use infrastructure (poles). • Establishment, in the Quality Service Regulation, that Internet access providers may not discriminate traffic according to the type of service. Some measures that were driven together by OSIPTEL and the Ministry are: • Gradual reduction of tariffs on imports of telecommunications equipment, achieving its elimination in 2007. • Changing the payment structure of the radio spectrum usage, removing an artificial barrier that affected the growth of the service. • Coordination with regional and municipal governments. Working with international consultants (2009) Optimal Regulatory and Competition Policies Design in a Telecommunications Convergence Scenario Developed with Analysys Mason. Analyzes the challenges and implications of convergent technologies and services, from the standpoint of technology, utility regulation and competition promotion. Next Generation Networks Interconnection Developed with WIK Consult GmbH. Analyzes interconnection schemes in convergent IP networks and how this concept can be incorporated in Peruvian legal framework. Cost Models for Access Network Deployment Developed with Detecon International GmbH. Develops cost models that allow evaluating expansion policies, competition, price regulation and establishment of differentiated charges, taking into account the latest access technologies.
