Die SAT-3-stelsel tesame met die SAFE-stelsel is deur 'n konsortium van operateurs geïnstalleer wat huidiglik 'n totaal van 36 aandeelhouers het. Die grootste drie beleggers in SAT-3/WASC was, in volgorde, TCI, 'n subsidiêr<!-- "subsidiary" --> van [[AT&T]] in die [[VSA]], [[France Telecom]] in [[Frankryk]], en VSNL in [[Indië]] en [[Singapoer]]. Die elf Afrika-aandeelhouers is, in alfabetiese volgorde, [[Angola Telecom]], [[Camtel]], [[Côte d'Ivoire Telecom]], [[Ghana Telecom]], [[Maroc Telecom]], [[Nitel]], [[OPT Benin]], [[OPT Gabon]], [[Sonatel]], [[Telecom Namibia]] en [[Telkom Suid-Afrika]].
 
==Bandwydtetariewe==
==Bandwydte-kostes==
Die kostes van die bandwydte vir SAT-3 in die Afrika-lande waar dit 'n diens lewer is hoog, van USD$4&nbsp;500 tot USD$12&nbsp;000 per [[Mgps]] per maand, meer as vyftig keer duurder as bandwydtepryse in die [[VSA]]. Hierdie hoë pryse word grotendeels aan die monopolieë van die operateurs teogeskryf. Die laagste tariewe kom in Ghana voor, waar die [[Ghana Internet Service Providers Association]] (GISPA) 'n twee jaar-ooreenkoms met Ghana Telecom gsluit het. SAT-3 monopolieë verval in [[November]] [[2007]] en lisensie-ooreenkomste word tans oor onderhandel.<!--
 
Many organizations, including the [[Association_of_African_Universities | Association of African Universities]], have lobbied for bandwidth price reductions and/or open access.
===Bandwidth costs===
Prices for SAT-3 bandwidth in the African countries it serves are high (USD$4500-$12000 per Mbps per month, over 50 times greater than bandwidth prices in the U.S.) in large part because operators have monopoly control of access. The lowest rates occur in Ghana, where the Ghana Internet Service Providers Association (GISPA) organized a 2 year negotiation with and court fight against Ghana Telecom. SAT-3 monopolies are due to expire in June 2007 and license agreements are being renegotiated. Many organizations, including the [[Association_of_African_Universities | Association of African Universities]], have lobbied for bandwidth price reductions and/or open access.
