Abstract

La Poste is a very ancient organisation of the postal service in France.It became an administration at the beginning of the 17th century to accomplish postal public missions. In 1991, the PTT administration was separated in two enterprises: France Telecom and La Poste. This last one is became a public enterprise, totally owned by the French state. La Poste is too an operator in the banking service. In 2006, was created La BanquePostale which is a subsidiary company 100% owned by La Poste. The case study will address the two main activity fields of La Poste: the delivery of mail and packages on one hand; financial services, on the other hand. It will be analysed under what conditions could be consistent the exercise of public missions, such as accessibility to postal and financial services, development of territories and the competitive constraints.
