Germany Decides Deutsche Post Will Retain Monopoly, FTD Reports

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-07-1 ... ports.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

The German government decided to let Deutsche Post AG (DPW) retain its monopoly, calling off plans by Economy Minister Philipp Roesler to liberalize postal services, Financial Times Deutschland reported, without saying where it got the information.

Deutsche Post retains its dominance over the business with a 90 percent market share that provides 8.1 billion euros ($9.9 billion) in annual revenue, FTD said.

Really? They're allowed to do that? Does that mean they should clear off from the UK market (I assume one of the DSA companies is owned by Deutsche Post).
