Accounting rates in the Caribbean: Finding a balance

Joe Scaffidi, Chris Lamb and Ewart Skinner

Telecommunications Policy, 1995, vol. 19, issue 5, 347-350

Abstract: This Comment examines the issue of telecommunications accounting rates in order to gain an understanding of the current relationship between the USA and the Caribbean nations. The initiative taken by the Federal Communications Commission on this issue will either increase the region's dependency status or protect US telecommunications carriers that handle Caribbean traffic. The present status of FCC accounting rate policy is restrained. This works in favor of Caribbean nations. If the USA and the nations of the Caribbean work together a more reasonable accounting rate will result for both.
