It is the largest Italian telecommunications services provider in revenues and subscribers. It was founded in 1994 by the merger of several state-owned telecommunications companies, the most prominent of which was SIP, the former state monopoly telephone operator in Italy.[6][7][8]
The company's stock is traded in the Borsa Italiana. The Italian State has exercised the "Golden Power" on TIM since 2017, which allows the government to take a number of actions when the strategic interests of the country are concerned.
TIM Group has also a subsidiary in Brazil, known as TIM Brasil, with 72.6 million customers.[9] The brand covers over 114 million customers worldwide.[10]
