We recently held investor calls with senior management at Salt (HERE), Swisscom (HERE) and Sunrise. We provide a summary in this report.

In addition, we can see how all three look attractive on a yield relative basis to the now 0% Swiss central Bank rate, that is seemingly heading to negative territory again.

However, we think this is better priced in, the risk return is less obvious and the growth beyond the 2027 “victory” will come with some twists. We think VodafoneZiggo's counter offensive (reta...

One of the key questions in European Telecoms at the moment is how successful will Digi be in Portugal, Spain and Belgium; and to a lesser extent, how successful can the challengers be in general: Salt, Iliad Italy, and so on. In this report, we take a top-down look at how spectrum drives success in European mobile, and what that means for future outcomes.
