Cinven confirms bid for Telekom Slovenije
2015-04-16 14:07:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) Cinven confirmed it filed the sole bid for the Slovenian's state's controlling stake in Telekom Slovenije. The private equity firm said that if it's bid is selected, it aims to "restore the company's position as a Slovenian champion". This will include significant investment in upgrading Telekom's network and plans to stop the erosion in revenues and return the company to sustainable growth. Investment would centre on expanding the fibre broadband and 4G networks, improving sales channels and customer service and optimising Telekom's product processes. "We believe that Telekom Slovenije represents an attractive, although challenging, investment opportunity, which fits well with Cinven's experience in the telecoms sector," the company said in a statement. Cinven's previous investments include French cable operator Numericable and Dutch operator Ziggo, both of which were eventually listed on the stock market. The company did not disclose the value of its bid for Telekom Slovenije but said it's in discussions with the state holding company on its offer.

EC confirms Google search charges, Android investigation
2015-04-15 13:05:00| Telecompaper Headlines
(Telecompaper) The European Commission confirmed formal charges against Google for competition violations, through favouring its own comparison shopping services over rival services in Google search results. This is one of the four areas previously outlined in the EU's investigation into possible abuse of Google's dominant position in the search market. Google will be able to respond to the charges and propose remedies, but if the EC is not satisfied with its response, it may impose a fine equal to up to 10 percent of Google's revenues. At the same time, the EC opened a new competition investigation into Google's Android operating system for mobile devices. The EC is concerned about Google's agreements with handset makers covering the installation of Google apps on their Android phones and whether this constitutes an abuse of Google's dominant position. The investigation was started following complaints from two unnamed market parties and the EC's own inquiries. In particular, the EC questions whether Google is hindering the market for other apps by tying its own services to Android and if its licensing agreements with manufacturers may be preventing the development of alternative versions of Android.
