This
is a fairly new area of practice in Ghana and in its pacesetting
tradition, Fugar & Co. has been in the forefront of affairs.
Our strength is in our experience and understanding of the
requirements of this specialized area.
To ensure that we are always abreast
with the latest developments in this field, the Firm regularly
liaises with the National Communications Authority which
is the regulator of the telecommunications industry in Ghana.
The Firm on a regular basis advises
its clients, potential operators and investors in this field
on the legal and regulatory framework of the communications
industry in Ghana.
The Firm also put together a team
that advised Portugal telecom in its bid to acquire 66%
in the issued equity capital of the state owned Ghana Telecom
Ltd. a telecommunications company. It also advised to Bharti-Airtel
in its acquisition of the assets of Zain Communications
Ghana Limited.
