    As the draft Dominance report undergoes internal review at CA,
Jaindi Kisero continues to provide some snapshots.








"Telecoms operator Safaricom could be forced to hive off its popular
mobile money service M-Pesa if sector regulator, the CA, moves to
implement recommendations of a market dominance report.












Separating the highly profitable mobile money service from
Safaricom’s core telecoms business – commonly referred to as
functional separation - is the gist of a raft of recommendations that
international consultants
- Analysys Mason - have made in a yet-to be published reportseen by
the Business Daily."
