Swisscom wins appeal in fibre-optic case, $21.6 million fine overturned
Swisscom said on Tuesday a court upheld its appeal against the Swiss competition watchdog’s 2023 ruling that the telecom firm abused its market dominance in a fibre-optic case, overturning a fine of 18 million Swiss franc ($21.6 million).
The case relates to a probe opened by the Swiss Competition Commission in late 2020 into Swisscom’s fibre-optic expansion on grounds it could exclude competitors and lead to the abuse of its leading market position.
