Abstract

[eng] Universal Service Obligations and Competition in Networks.. The opening of public networks to competition raises the twofold question of determining which operator is to fulfil the universal service obligations and how the operator’s resultant losses are to be financed. The paper examines several solutions and compares their properties in terms of welfare and redistribution. [fre] L’ouverture à la concurrence dans les réseaux pose la double question de savoir quel opérateur doit assurer les obligations de service universel et comment financer les pertes ainsi causées aux opérateurs en charge de ces obligations. Nous explorons ici plusieurs solutions et nous en comparons les propriétés en termes de bien-être et de redistribution.
