Italian
Post: Missed opportunity |
The
Italian government offered 40% of the shares of the
Italian Post, on which 1.13% reserved for employees.
Results of the IPO are very satisfactory for the Italian
State, collecting 3.4 billion euros, with total demand
exceeding 4 times the offer. Employees have received
half of the reserved shares: 26,234 employees subscribed,
less than 20% of all employees of the Italian Post.
In an open letter, the CISL union had put forward its
own draft collective ownership, combined with community
representation of employees on the German model. The
Italian Government did not want to go that way, nor
did it choose for a real employee share ownership plan
supported through fiscal incentives. Yet will there
be IPO bonuses for 12 top executives, up to half of
their annual salary. Comparison: The British Government
put Royal Mail on the stock market two years ago, while
awarding a 10% stake for free to the 150,000 employees
of the British Post.
