Author_Institution :
Minist. of Commun., Brazil
Abstract :
Private investors are not currently active in Brazil´s public service networks, but there are opportunities for the participation of private capital in many other niches of the telecommunications field. At this moment the Brazilian Administration cannot accept the participation of private investors in the public service networks and that studies will be carried out only after the Congress approves the necessary change of one article in the Constitution. However, today there is a large space for the participation of private capital in many other niches of the telecommunications field.<>
