PROFILE |
 |
Operating in São Paulo, Brazil's wealthiest state, Telecomunicações de São Paulo, known as Telesp, offers local, intraregional long-distance, data transmission, and network services over more than 8 million telephone lines. The company also provides interconnections to Brazil's long-distance provider Embratel and operates about 200,000 public telephones. Telesp's service area, which includes about 20% of Brazil's population, was opened to competition in 1999. The company emerged from the 1998 breakup of Telebrás, Brazil's former telecommunications monopoly. Spanish telecom giant Telefónica controls an 88% stake in Telesp, and is buying the rest.
