Slim took over the shares in Telekom Austria primarily from the Austrian investor Ronny Pecik , who had only acquired 20 percent of Telekom Austria in September 2011. As of July 15, 2014, América Móvil increased its stake to almost 51% and thus took over the majority. As of May 2019, the proportion is exactly 51%.
