Retevisión S.A.
 PROFILE
The rival of Spain's former telephone monopoly, Telefónica, TV broadcast carrier Retevisión serves about 2.1 million phone customers throughout the country. Its direct access network, consisting of 120,000 lines, provides voice, data and Internet transmission primarily to businesses. The company owns a 40% stake in mobile phone firm Amena and ISP Iddeo, and it operates a Spanish Internet portal with Excite@Home. Once the only Spanish carrier allowed to transmit TV signals, Retevisión lost its monopoly in 2000. An Auna joint venture (Telecom Italia and power giants Endesa and Union Electrica Fenosa) controls Retevisión, which became Spain's second phone company in 1998 amid industry deregulation.
