Abstract
This chapter provides an overview of the state of liberalization, competition, and
regulation of major segments of the telecommunications industry in Turkey. It
shows that the competitive stance of the regulatory authority and the development
of actual competition have been uneven across segments. Specifically, the degree
of competition has been higher in the mobile segment relative to fixed telephony
or broadband. The chapter also discusses the new Electronic Communications
Law and argues that although not perfect, it provides a coherent basis on which
the regulatory authority can pursue competitive objectives in a more even manner.
However, the actual development of competition will depend a lot on how the law
and the ensuing secondary legislation are actually implemented.
