Breakdown of the economic value distribuited

 

Poste Italiane’s business activities, in addition to generating direct impacts (i.e. closely linked to the Company’s economic activity), requires the purchase of goods and services produced by other companies (generating indirect impacts) and allows families who have received income thanks to the work done for the Group and its suppliers to purchase new goods and services (generating induced impacts).

Through its leadership in the logistics, financial, insurance and payment services sectors, Poste Italiane plays a key role in the creation of economic value both for the stakeholders directly impacted by its business activities and for the country as a whole. In particular, the activities carried out by Poste Italiane generate impacts on GDP, employment income, employment and contributions to PA. Impacts can be distinguished into:

• Direct impacts: impacts generated by the operating activities carried out directly by Poste Italiane;
• Indirect impacts: impacts generated along the supply chain as a result of Poste Italiane’s spending on goods and services (€3.2 billion in 2022) from Italian suppliers
• Induced impacts: impacts generated by consumer spending that is realised through the income earned by workers employed directly and indirectly by the Group.
