阅读提示：葡萄牙电信是葡萄牙最大的电信运营商，主要在葡萄牙和巴西运作。同时葡萄牙电信也是葡萄牙唯一的一家电信运营商，直到1994年它还一直是家垄断型企业。后来政府逐渐放开对公司的控制，在2000年的时候葡萄牙电信成为了股份制公司。从那以后，它在自由的葡萄牙市场上保持统治地位。

由于其占据大量的市场份额，葡萄牙电信仍旧被认为是葡萄牙固定电话市场中的实际垄断公司。

Portugal Telecom (Euronext: PTC, NYSE: PT) is the biggest telecom operator in Portugal. It operates mainly in Portugal and Brasil.
