In fact, Chile has one of the least-regulated telecom markets in the region, with full competition allowed in all areas. The government is studying modifications to telecom law, which mostly dates back to the 1980s. Areas under discussion include Local Loop Unbundling (LLU), Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), tariff deregulation, and convergence issues. LLU and VoIP have been under discussion for several years, with established operators worried that any new rules may pose new competition challenges and erode their market share.
