Telenor Norway risks NOK 906 mln competition fine

(Telecompaper) The Norwegian Competition Authority (Konkurransetilsynet) said it has issued a statement of objections to Telenor Norway for abuse of a dominant position, and has warned the operator that it is considering imposing a fine of NOK 906 million for the infringement. Its view is that Telenor behaved in a way that impeded the entry of a third, competing mobile network. The operator has until 01 March 2017 to respond.
