Spanish telecoms regulator the Comision Nacional de Mercados y Competencia (CNMC) has announced fines for both Telefonica Espana and Yoigo related to what it claims is an anti-competitive roaming agreement between the duo. In a press release confirming the development the regulator revealed that the fines for the two companies totalled EUR6.3 million (USD6.9 million), though Telefonica is liable for the bulk – EUR6.0 million – of that figure, with Yoigo facing a EUR300,000 penalty. Such disparate figures, the CNMC noted, were proportionate to the size and capacity of both companies, while also representing ‘the level of blame and responsibility’.
