Questions Raised Over Cost and Approval Process of Ufone’s Proposed Rebranding
The reported move has sparked questions over the cost of the rebranding exercise, funding arrangements, and the transparency of the approval process. Industry experts have called for greater clarity on whether all corporate governance requirements, regulatory approvals, and budget authorizations have been completed before proceeding.
If implemented, the change is expected to affect only the company’s branding, with no immediate impact on customers’ existing mobile services or subscriptions. The rebranding would mark one of the biggest corporate transformations in Pakistan’s telecom sector in recent years.
