Govt. approves Digicel’s Cingular Barbados acquisition (Barbados)

www.WirelessFederation.com/news: Government of Barbados has reportedly given green signal to Digicel’s acquisition of the mobile operations of Cingular Wireless on the island. Barbados’ Fair Trade Commission ruled that the deal would not badly affect competition to the detriment of consumers because the combined market share of Digicel and Cingular on the island is less than 40%. The Digicel Group has already acquired Cingular’s operations in Anguilla, Antigua, Bermuda, Dominica and St. Kitts.
