Abstract: This paper analyzes spectrum management practices in the Philippines. It examines the literature on what the Philippines and other countries have done when it comes to allocating spectrum rights. The regulatory body in the Philippines allocates available spectrum via an administrative approach which lacks transparency and due process. This paper recommends that the regulatory body adopts the auction method in allocating spectrum. This method hasbeen proven to be transparent, fair, and cost-effective method if a suitable design is adopted. There are very few studies that look at spectrum management in the Philippines. This paper offers some policy recommendations that can help the Philippines in allocating spectrum rights more efficiently and increase its government’s revenues.
