Postal service privatization

Several countries have undergone or are in various stages of privatizing their national postal service:

Deutsche Post

Privatized in 2000. As of early 2005, 20% of outstanding shares were owned by the German government. In the finance community, Deutsche Post is often cited as a privatization success story.

Japan Post

Currently majority-owned by the government, Japan Post is scheduled for complete privatization in 2007. Significant opposition to the Government's privatization plan exists.
