Lessons learned from Public-Private-Cooperations
Select suitable and flexible public / private - operating / business
model
Make sure financing matches the life time of the assets
Allow for healthy competition in the procurement phase
The setting of wholesale/rental rates and profitability benchmarks is
crucial for a healthy private business without long-term public
budgetary burden
The rates need to be set to competitive retail service pricing and no long term
budgetary burden for the public during the operational phase
Wholesale
rates
Benchmarks for profitability need to be better tailored to compare likes with likes
Robust and future proven network design to meet technology
neutrality and broadband policy targets
Rental rates
Do not forget to leave out the options that new copper enhancement
technologies can offer
The white spot coverage should use a combination of fixed and mobile / 4G
technologies
Reuse of existing infrastructure by third parties is difficult from commercial but
also technical point of view
