Bell Canada Today• Canada’s largest communications
company– $17 billion in revenues in 2006– Market cap: $24 billion
• Largest shareholder: OTPP, 6.3%– Dissatisfied with stock’s performance
and quality of management

The Industry • Changing rapidly
– Extensive wireless penetration rates– Traditional telephone declining
• Heavily regulated by CRTC– Foreign companies prohibited from holding
more than 47% of a Canadian telecom company
• Main competitors– Rogers and Telus– New means of telecommunication
![Page 7: Romain Adès Kerim Baccari Alexis Lemieux-Cardinal](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062305/56815235550346895dc07a32/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
CRTC• The CRTC has a history of blocking acquisitions
– Telus – Mobilicity– Bell – Astral
• In order to maintain competition in the industry• Cautious about acquisitions by foreign
investors• Since acquisition will not decrease competition,
and since OTPP will participate in transaction– CRTC is likely to allow the acquisition– But might intervene to ensure compliance to
regulations: lenghty process
