Singtel's Optus, TPG Telecom secure approval for network-sharing deal

The agreement has an initial term of 11 years. 

Optus, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Singtel, received approval from the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) for its proposed regional network and spectrum-sharing agreements with TPG Telecom.

Under the Multi-Operator Core Network (MOCN) agreement, Optus will grant TPG Telecom access to its regional radio access network, with both companies sharing spectrum in regional Australia.

The non-exclusive agreement has an initial term of 11 years. 
 
TPG Telecom has the option to extend the agreement for another five years.

Provided that the remaining regulatory approvals are obtained, TPG and Optus customers can expect access to the MOCN by early 2025.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
