Downside risks to telcos from single wholesale network model, says Kenanga

KUALA LUMPUR: There could be numerous downside risks to mobile network operators' near- and medium-term profitability should the government proceed to adopt a single wholesale network model for the 5G network rollout, says Kenanga Research.

This comes as the research firm said it expects the government to opt for the SWN model given that cancellation would pose "severe risks and repercussions to the sector, government and nation".
