Last year, T-Mobile announced its merger with Sprint into a large telecom company. This deal is yet to be finalized and it’s awaiting some approvals which are expected to come in the first quarter of next year. According to T-Mobile Chief Financial Officer, Braxton Carter, the approval will come faster than expected and it arrives just in time for the new telecom giant to put up a good 5G fight with other American telecom operators such as AT&T and Verizon with greater advantages.
However, Braxton Carter said that the current transaction still depends on the regulatory approval status. At present, T-Mobile has prepared enough documents for the deal to pull through and the US Department of Justice will go through the business proposals of the two parties to ensure that it will not constitute a market monopoly.
