Report Description:
Postal markets around the world are transforming. Letter mail volume is declining while the parcel sector becomes increasingly competitive. These trends are placing significant financial pressure on national posts and their ability to sustain the provision of universal postal services. These trends have inspired discussions in many countries about how postal regulatory frameworks might adapt to a new market reality. In this paper, the U.S. Postal Service Office of Inspector General (OIG) examines the main oversight activities of the Postal Regulatory Commission (PRC) in the U.S. and other postal regulators in selected countries with developed postal markets. The paper also explores challenges and trends affecting postal regulation and regulatory oversight.
