A chapter in The Economics of the Postal and Delivery Sector, 2022, pp 1-17 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Adopting a comparative perspective, this article examines whether, in light of the ongoing changes in the postal markets, incumbent postal operators are likely to keep dominating the industry, and whether new entrants’ strategies are more likely to succeed nationally or in niche segments. It will also contribute to the lively debate as to whether access – negotiated or regulated – to the incumbent’s postal network is a more sustainable outcome with respect to end-to-end competition.
