Competition and Price Dispersion in International Long Distance Calling
Author: Sean F. Ennis

Book Description
This paper examines the relationship between changes in telecommunications provider concentration on international long distance routes and changes in prices on those routes. Overall, decreased concentration is associated with significantly lower prices to consumers of long distance services. However, the relationship between concentration and price varies according to the type of long distance plan considered. For the international flagship plans frequently selected by more price-conscious consumers of international long distance, increased competition on a route is associated with lower prices. In contrast, for the basic international plans that are the default selection for consumers who do not subscribe to special plans, increased competition on a route is actually associated with higher prices. Thus, somewhat surprisingly, price dispersion appears to increase as competition increases.

Flow-Through and Competition in the International Message Telephone Service Market
Author: George S. Ford
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
One of the most contentious debates in modern telecommunications policy regards whether or not a regulatory mandated reductions in the per-minute costs of long distance carriers - access charges domestically and settlement rates internationally - are fully reflected in the per-minute prices for long distance calls. In this paper, we evaluate the flow through of settlement costs to international long distance prices and find strong evidence that IMTS prices are closely related to settlement costs, and that these prices fully reflect differences in settlement costs. Further, the estimated relationship between prices and settlement cost indicates, under certain assumptions, that the IMTS industry is very competitive.
