Switzerland’s competition commission (COMCO) has opened an investigation into telecom provider Swisscom, ordering immediate precautionary measures to allow competitors access to networks during its fiber-optic expansion.

COMCO on Thursday, December 17, stated that Swisscom’s expansion risked excluding other participants from the market that could amount to misuse of its market-leading position.
