The Senegalese Telecommunications and Postal Regulatory Authority (ARTP) has cut the rates for services provided by telecom operators to virtual mobile operators (MVNOs) and value-added service aggregators (VAS).
The tariff adjustment aims to facilitate the entry and development of MVNOs, VAS providers and aggregators in the Senegalese electronic communications market by offering them advantageous conditions adapted to their specific needs.
According to the regulator, this initiative comes after consultation with stakeholders. It is part of the efforts undertaken by the telecoms regulator to promote a dynamic and competitive economic environment in the electronic communications sector, for the benefit of consumers.
“We are confident that these measures will help strengthen our country’s digital landscape and open up new opportunities for emerging players, enabling them to explore new business models, offer innovative services with affordable rates and respond more effectively to the changing needs of users,” said ARTP.
