Competition Management

The Telecom and Media Competition Code is a comprehensive competition management framework that comprises ex-ante obligations and ex-post provisions which licensees must comply with.

As part of its regulatory framework for telecom competition management, IMDA provides an exemption from dominant licensee obligations under the Telecom Competition Code. This exemption aims to encourage competition among service providers and promote innovation in the telecommunications market while still ensuring compliance with relevant regulations and obligations established by IMDA.

In a fully competitive environment, market forces are more effective than regulations in providing consumers with a wide choice of services at reasonable prices. Hence, price regulation is imposed only on dominant operators that have the potential to abuse their market power and engage in anti-competitive practices.

In a move towards greater transparency in an open market, IMDA publicises regulatory decisions relating to the implementation and enforcement of the Telecom and Media Competition Code, Telecommunications Act, IMDA Act, telecommunication and media licence conditions and other relevant telecommunications/media-related regulations enforceable by IMDA.
