摘要：Pricing in the market is intimately linked with the evolution of market structure. As with many network industries, pricing to a large extent relies on two-part tariff systems. The analysis of pricing plans is complicated by the fact that it concerns competition among networks. Price setting in mobile telecommunication industry is based only slightly on cost and is designed rather to exploit market power. This is most effectively undertaken in the traffic termination services on mobile networks, in particular for traffic originating from fixed line networks. A great deal of subscribers and market growth has therefore been possible thanks to the transfer of termination payments from the fixed to the mobile network. This also applies for the Romanian telecommunication market. Moreover, due to the five important mobile telecommunication competitors, a price analysis is very hard to be made. However, mobile telecommunication companies follow almost the same scenario introducing price offers that are difficult to be compared.
