Telstra Group to Retire Legacy CAN Radio, ADSL Services by November 2027

By

Telstra Group (ASX:TLS) said it will retire its legacy customer access network (CAN) radio and asymmetric digital subscriber line (ADSL) services by Nov. 16, 2027, as part of its ongoing transition away from aging infrastructure, the company's website showed.

The company said its CAN radio voice service and ADSL broadband service rely on technology that is more than 40 years old and is becoming increasingly unreliable.

The company added that affected customers do not need to take immediate action, as it will contact them in the coming months with replacement options and transition support.

China's Central Bank Plans Overnight Reverse Repo in End-June

The People's Bank of China will increase the overnight reverse repurchase operation in its open market operations on June 29 and June 30.The operation will adopt a fixed interest rate and quantity bidding, according to a Thursday statement.The new rate will be an addition to the PBOC's regular seven-day reverse repo rate, currently at 1.4%, which has served as the main policy benchmark since 2024, Bloomberg reported.Standard Chartered's Becky Liu said the move is a major step toward aligning with U.S. policy rate structures, according to the report. She added that the overnight reverse repo rate is the figure to watch and anything at 1.25% or below would amount to a de facto PBOC rate cut.
