América Móvil, the Mexican telecoms giant controlled by billionaire Carlos Slim, said on Monday its Peruvian subsidiary had agreed to buy Olo Del Peru S.A.C. and TVS Wireless S.A.C., two telecommunications operators in Peru.






In a statement to the Mexican bourse, América Móvil said its local subsidiary, América Móvil Peru S.A.C., had agreed a share deal with Metsanco Limited and its affiliates to buy the two companies, which hold 2.5 GHz spectrum.


The deal is subject to certain conditions being met, América Móvil added, without disclosing financial details.
