There is no one model for best regulatory practice
The regulatory landscape is hugely varied, fast-moving and extremely complex. It is no surprise then that a single ICT regulatory model has not been developed to date. Points of convergence are emerging however, driven by factors such as efficiency, extended access to networks, affordability and quality of service. However, some regulatory topics are generating more attention and will evolve at a faster pace than others, helping to shape markets and changing the established market order. At the same time, new issues are constantly emerging, posing growing challenges to regulators. Some topics are so intricate that they require collective action from the international community, while others will potentially disrupt the market order in the ICT sector as well as in others.
