    2. NRAs should thus verify the SMP operator’s pricing behaviour by applying a properly specified margin-squeeze test over an appropriate timeframe.
    3. In the absence of cost orientation NRAs should monitor the SMP operator’s pricing behaviour by applying a properly specified margin-squeeze test.
    4. Margin squeeze can be demonstrated by showing that the SMP operator’s own downstream operations could not trade profitably on the basis of the upstream price charged to its competitors by the upstream operating arm of the SMP operator (‘equally efficient competitor’ test).
    5. On the other hand, action to reduce the level of retail prices without addressing the level of the wholesale costs associated with the provision of these services could prejudice the position of some operators, in particular smaller operators, by increasing the risk of price squeeze.
    6. LDCOM proposes prohibiting the temporal or price squeeze on unbundling, imposing on Wanadoo an obligation to supply third parties for Internet retailing, increasing the profitability of alternative networks by increasing the prices of incoming interconnection and reserving for competitors the benefit of public subsidies within the framework of the deployment of networks in low-profitability areas.
    7. The Commission considers that Sachsen LB was pursuant to point 9 of the Guidelines a firm is in difficulty given that without the liquidity measure by the banking pool and LBBW’s EUR 250 million pre-payment it was highly unlikely that Sachsen LB would have been able to cope with the liquidity squeeze for much longer.
    8. Alternatively, a margin squeeze can also be demonstrated by showing that the margin between the price charged to competitors on the upstream market for access and the price which the downstream arm of the SMP operator charges in the downstream market is insufficient to allow a reasonably efficient service provider in the downstream market to obtain a normal profit (reasonably efficient competitor test).
    9. WorldCom concludes that this industrial strategy entails anticompetitive practices, including the existence of cross-subsidies and of a price squeeze between the price proposed by France Télécom to the final customer and the price of access proposed to competitors of the historical operator, and the possibility of making tailor-made bids that are impossible to match when public contracts are being awarded (the ‘Sipperec’ and ‘public assistance/Paris hospitals’ contracts being two such examples).
    10. The Commission considers that Sachsen LB was pursuant to point 9 of the Guidelines a firm is in difficulty given that without the liquidity measure by the banking pool and LBBW’s EUR 250 million pre-payment it was highly unlikely that Sachsen LB would have been able to cope with the liquidity squeeze for much longer.

    11. In this context the Commission would emphasise that preventive measures could have been taken by BB and the owner to limit the liquidity outflow and notes that the Province of Burgenland had already committed itself to raising EUR 380 million of new liquidity for BB by issuing new bonds covered by Ausfallhaftung before the sale of the bank. The Commission cannot concur with Austria’s argument that the issue of additional bonds, providing BB with additional liquidity in the amount of EUR 380 million, would not have been a decisive factor for any of the bidders for the bank, when at the same time Austria argues that the expected liquidity squeeze was a reason not to sell BB to the Consortium.
