Colombia’s Superintendence for Industry and Commerce has issued judicial measures against Claro, Colombia’s largest mobile phone operator, ordering the company to adjust the interconnection rates and comply with asymmetric rates imposed by the Communications Regulation Commission.
The SIC has determined, after analysing a request by Colombia Telecomunicaciones (Telefónica’s Colombian branch), that Claro has engaged in unfair competition practices by charging higher rates than allowed by a 2010 regulation.
