Swiss Post is conducting negotiations with the Liechtenstein government, as it announced on Thursday. The two parties have signed a letter of intent. Accordingly, the Principality of Liechtenstein is expected to buy back shares in Swiss Post in the entire Liechtenstein Post by the end of 2021. This means that the Liechtenstein Post would once again be 100 percent owned by the State of Liechtenstein.
With the new “Post of Tomorrow” strategy, Swiss Post is focusing on growth and investments in its core areas of logistics and communication, as it also announced. Against this background, she is also reviewing her existing holdings in other companies. Since 2005, Swiss Post has been a minority shareholder in Liechtenstein Post with a stake of 25 percent.
