Market Analysis

The 2002 EU regulatory framework requires that National Regulatory Authorities (“NRAs”) define relevant markets appropriate to national circumstances and carry out a market analysis to identify whether competition is effective or whether there are operators with Significant Market Power (“SMP”).
