Fiber optic internet offers some of the highest speeds for data transmission as well as the lowest operating costs at a time internet connectivity is becoming a critical policy issue around the world as it is shown to support economic growth. Ares has continued to acquire Frontier stock in the public markets as recently as this month, according to a regulatory filing.
