Mike Roberts, principal analyst at Informa Telecoms & Media, comments on Softbank's $20 billion acquisition of Sprint

(PresseBox) (London, )
This is an audacious deal that could transform or hobble the companies depending on how it plays out. For Softbank it is a huge bet that it's better to invest $20 billion in the third-largest US mobile operator rather than its home market of Japan where it is the third-largest mobile operator behind NTT DoCoMo and KDDI. While it's true that Softbank's investment could pay off by making Sprint significantly more competitive, it's also true that there's a huge risk that the deal will not go to plan and could weaken both companies at critical times.
