As an industry regulator, IMDA seeks to promote and preserve the competitiveness of the infocomm and media sectors in Singapore. Enforcing regulations and regulatory requirements imposed on companies operating in the industry prevent unfair business practices that reduce competition for consumers.
In Singapore, IMDA ensures that licensees comply with the relevant Codes of Practice, such as the Telecom and Media Competition Code. The Code maintains fair and effective competition and ensures a comprehensive range of choices for the consumer in the sectors.
Besides Codes of Practice, IMDA also issues guidelines, and minimum Quality of Service standards, and reviews mergers and acquisitions involving licensees. They serve the similar purpose of encouraging market competition and enhancing consumer choice.
