Call termination rates for Sri Lanka

The Government of Sri Lanka recently announced a shift in the way that customers are charged for calls so that the customer who makes a call will be the one that pays for it. This system is known as "Calling Party Pays" and is common throughout Europe and Asia. As part of this reform, Frontier led a team advising the Regulatory Authority on the appropriate level of termination charges - the charge that one network pays another when a call is passed between them. This involved the detailed modelling of the cost structures of fixed and mobile operators, using a FDC model (Fully Distributed Costs), based on accounting data.
