Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has major economic impacts around the world. Only essential services have been functioning in many countries due to the introduction of extreme measures. The Covid-19 economic crisis is also having several impacts on postal markets. The lockdowns periods in the countries around the world have encouraged the use of e-commerce and the e-substitution of some activities. Therefore, parcel revenues of the main postal operators increased in 2020 compared to 2019. However letters revenues of the main postal operators decreased between 2019 and 2020 more sharply than in previous years (see Table 12.3).
