Popis: The universal postal service is part of the general interest economic services in which the state intervention is needed. From the economic and financial point of view, it is absolutely necessary to find the best formula by which a financial aid does not represent the premises of a state aid. The specific features of this market are determined by the minimum conditions imposed on what the frequency and speed delivery are concerned, in conditions of maximal rates. This paper focuses on an analysis on the EU’s postal services’ markets, from the competition point of view, with a special emphasis on the specific features of the players on this market, as well as on the benefits for their clients. The second part of the study focuses on actual situations from two EU’s different states and on competition aspects that these states have confronted with.
