Price competition will impact telco revenues despite collaboration, says Kenanga

KUALA LUMPUR: Mobile network operators (MNO) Celcom, Digi and Maxis will still face stiff competition in the mobile space despite their collaboration in developing and sharing fibre infrastructure.

Kenanga Research said in a note that their 20-year agreement could benefit the collaborators in three different ways, including reducing the capex requirements, expanding the fibre reach of the operators and reducing the duplication of assets.
