   Foreign ownership of US wireless telecommunications and broadcast   
   entities is capped at 25%, absent approval from the Federal Communi-   
   cations Commission. In recent years, the FCC has formalized its review   
   of foreign ownership requests and has allowed up to 100% foreign   
   ownership in some cases. The FCC will not, however, approve a request   
   for increased foreign ownership until that request has also been   
   reviewed and approved by certain executive branch agencies, commonly   
   referred to as "Team Telecom," as well as by the Committee on Foreign   
   Investment in the US when necessary.
