Will PTC become a victim of its own success?
The company is very close to winning a 40% share of the domestic mobile market, and it will probably achieve this figure by the end of the year. Should this happen, it will mean it has a "significant market position" and regulators might start analyzing PTC's competitiveness. The Telecommunications and Post Regulations Office's (URTiP) task would be to check if the market's balance has not been upset by PTC's dominant position. If it has, PTC may be forced to alter its offers. However, "Being given the status of a mobile operator with a significant market position may have a completely different effect than the development of competitiveness," said Maciej Rogalski, head of PTC's legal department. In Q3 the number of PTC's clients surpassed 8.1 million, which is a 39% market share. (Puls Biznesu, p. 11)
