www.WirelessFederation.com/news: CFC’s approval has been seeked by Mexican media group Televisa to acquire a stake in the local unit of mobile operator NII Holdings. Both the companies have notified the Federal Competition Commission regarding their intention to undertake this acquisition.

The CFC has 30 days to approve or deny the acquisition.

There are 2.9 million customers and 3.6 percent mobile market share of NII Holdings operating in Latin America under the Nextel brand name, in Mexico at the end of September 2009.

www.WirelessFederation.com/news: Federal Competition Commission (FCC) of Mexico has reconfirmed its decision of establishing the market dominance position of Telcel. The decision was ratified after analyzing the arguments presented by Telcel to sustain that it does not apply any anti-competitive practices.

Telcel’s large market share in terms of subscribers and revenue and high levels of profit gained steadily in recent years has been taken into account during the investigations.

Telcel’s capacity to achieve net subscriber additions over its competitors as a result of its high level of coverage and extensive distribution network spread across the country, as well as the existence of significant barriers to the entry of new operators is also added by CFC.
