BONN (dpa-AFX) - Deutsche Telekom (DTEGY.PK) CEO, Tim Höttges, outlined three areas which will be responsible for Deutsche Telekom's advance in 2016: shareholding structure; customer service; and Network build-out. Höttges made it plain that the network of the future will be based on optical fiber but will be more than just high bandwidth.
'This network of the future has a name: 5G. People and billions of machines and sensors will communicate over it. This is the digital future. 5G is our answer. We will be launching it starting in 2020. But we are already making the preparations today,' Höttges said.
The Group said, according to the proposal put forward by its Board of Management and the Supervisory Board, the dividend is to rise 10 percent to 55 eurocents per share. The Group said shareholders can opt to take their dividend either in cash or in the form of shares.
