A chapter in The Future of the Postal Sector in a Digital World, 2016, pp 137-152 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The postal sector has undergone dramatic changes over the recent years under the double effect of liberalization and increased competition from alternative communication channels (e-substitution). As a result, the mail volume handled by the historical operator has declined sharply (Nikali 2008; Fève et al. 2010; Meschi et al. 2010).
