Roger Altman, chairman of Evercore Partners, told CNBC Thursday AT&T's proposed acquisition of Deutsche Telekom's T-Mobile will be approved by antitrust regulators.
"My own view is this is one of the most fiercely competitive industries in the world," said Altman, whose company is an advisor on the deal. "I don’t see any scenario where this acquisition, if completed, changes the degree to which this is a fiercely competitive business and changes the degree to which prices continue to fall."
