(ANSA) - Rome, May 10 - Italy's Antitrust authority on
Friday said it had fined Telecom Italia 103.8 million euros for
abusing its dominant market position.
Italy's largest telecommunications operator "abused its
dominant position in relation to its infrastructure network,"
adding that it had identified "two separate actions through
which it had protected its market share by creating obstacles to
competitors' offers to retail clients".Telecom was formerly owned by the Italian State before being privatized in the 1990s. It inherited the infrastructure network it had owned as a public services provider when it was sold.
