PRESIDENT BOLSONARO SIGNS INTO LAW INTRODUCTION OF SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS SECTOR

/> </p> <h2>NEWS</h2> <p>President Bolsonaro signed into law the bill that introduces modifications  and creates new investment opportunities in the Brazilian telecom sector.</p> <p>As we had reported when the bill was approved, such modifications are summarized as follows:</p> <p><strong>(i) </strong>Introduced the possibility of the migration of fixed switched telephone service concessions (<em>SFTC</em>) to the private system (authorization), with the significant reduction of the obligations, and thus, enabling the development of new businesses (focusing on broadband);</p> <p><strong>(ii) </strong>The end of the limitation of a single extension for the terrestrial and satelital radio-frequencies spectrum licenses, included the right of use of the orbital positions;</p> <p><strong>(iii) </strong>Creation of a secondary spectrum market, allowing the transfer between the telecommunications services providers depending on the prior consent of the National Telecommunications Agency (<em>ANATEL</em>); and</p> <p><strong>(iv) </strong>Exclusion of broadcasting companies from payment of the Fund for Universal Access to Telecommunications Services (<em>FUST</em>);</p> <p>Law No. 13,879/19 also requires regulation by presidential decree to guide the ANATEL on the investments that should be prioritized in setting commitments for contract migration.</p> <p>However, ANATEL has started the discussion on the regulation related to the migration from concessions to authorizations – the central point of the new Law. The Board of Directors will be responsible for drafting the proposal for a regulation on migration (that will set principles for the calculation and the modeling), in addition to the new general granting plan.</p> <p>We put ourselves at your disposal to discuss the subject and clarify eventual doubts.</p> <h2>COMPARTILHE</h2> <p> <a href=
