The European Commission instigated an investigation into Sweden’s operators, related to possible anti-competitive practices and/or possible abuse of a collective dominant market position.

Telenor and Tele2 confirmed the probe in separate, but similar, statements. Both said they have “strict” or “clear” internal compliance guidelines, and are cooperating with the authorities in their investigation.

Telia simply said that it “of course cooperates fully with the EU Commission”.
