What is Deutsche Post World Net? Deutsche Post World Net Review

Company Introduction

Deutsche Post AG is a privately owned postal company established by the privatization of the German Federal Post in 1995, and became a completely independent company in 2000. In order to prevent the drawbacks brought about by excessive marketization after the split of the German Federal Post, the government established the "Regulierungsbehorde fur Telekommunikation und Post, Reg TP" (also maintained and supervised a reasonable competition mechanism in the postal and telecommunications services through the Postal Law). Since then, Deutsche Post has built the Deutsche Post International Network through corporate acquisitions (DHL, Postbank and Danzas, etc.).

On March 11, 2009, Deutsche Post proposed a new "2015 strategy", renamed Deutsche Post World Network (DPWN) to Deutsche Post DHL, and launched a new brand logo. The "bull horn" of Deutsche Post disappeared from the new Loqo.

The new name is Deutsche Post DHL, and the new domain name dp-dhl de is also launched. The old dpwn.de domain name will automatically be transferred to the new domain name.

Deutsche Postbank

introduce

Deutsche Postbank AG (ISIN:DE0008001009, FWB:DPB) is a bank in Germany.

According to the second German postal reform in 1989, it was separated from Deutsche Post and became an independent joint-stock company. Its focus is on savings and retail business, but in 1999 it was bought by Deutsche Post and became a subsidiary of Deutsche Post.

Development History

In 1909, the German Empire introduced the "Postal Check Service", which gave everyone the right to open a checking account at a post office that could be used to make cashless payments.

Austria started the postal savings service in 1883, and Germany introduced it in 1939. Savers can deposit money at any post office and withdraw it at post offices in many European countries.

In 1989, with the reform of the German Post, Postbank became an independent enterprise, but in 1999, the German Post bought Postbank again.

On January 1, 2004, Postbank began to handle payment services for Deutsche Bank and Dresden Bank.

On May 6, 2004, Deutsche Post announced that it would issue shares of Postbank, with an issue size of 50 shares per ticket. However, due to the small number of subscribers, the price per ticket was reduced from the planned 3,150 euros to 28 euros, and the issuance date was postponed to June 23 (planned for June 19).

On September 12, 2008, Deutsche Bank announced the acquisition of 29.75% of Postbank shares (and has the right to acquire an additional 18% or 20.25% in the next 36 months) at 57.25 euros per share for 27.9 billion euros (US$3.93 billion) in cash.

On September 13, 2010, Deutsche Bank planned to acquire the remaining 70% of Postbank's shares for 24 to 25 euros per share in cash.
