Shareholders
Shareholders of La Poste
La Poste’s share capital is disclosed as being held by two shareholders: Caisse des Depots et Consignations, which holds approximately 66 percent, and the French State, which holds approximately 34 percent, together representing the entirety of the company’s capital. This structure dates to a 2020 reorganisation in which the State transferred a further tranche of its holding to Caisse des Depots et Consignations, raising the latter’s stake from around 26 percent to 66 percent. The information is drawn from La Poste Groupe’s own corporate communications and corroborated by public-sector reporting; no more recent restructuring of the shareholding has been identified as of the September 2026 retrieval date.
Both disclosed holdings are direct interests in La Poste SA. No intermediate holding company sits between these two shareholders and La Poste for the purposes of share capital.
Ultimate beneficial ownership
No natural-person ultimate beneficial owner is identified. La Poste is wholly owned by two French public-sector bodies, Caisse des Depots et Consignations (a public financial institution) and the French State, and no individual holds a qualifying beneficial interest under this structure.
Data availability
Shareholder disclosure for La Poste is classified as Full: both shareholders and their approximate percentage holdings are publicly disclosed through the company’s own governance communications, consistent with its status as a wholly state-owned enterprise.

Group Structure
Group structure of La Poste
This profile corresponds to a secondary establishment of La Poste, specifically a local post office in Pau, Pyrenees-Atlantiques (SIRET 356 000 000 29235). Under French company law this is not a separate legal entity but a business location (etablissement secondaire) belonging to the single legal entity La Poste SA (SIREN 356 000 000), whose registered head office is at 9 rue du Colonel Pierre Avia, 75015 Paris (SIRET 356 000 000 00048). This relationship is verified through France’s official company registry data (INPI / Annuaire des Entreprises).
La Poste SA is itself the parent legal entity of the wider group known as La Poste Groupe. Based on the company’s own official disclosures, the group includes La Banque Postale (banking), Geopost, operating internationally as DPD Group (parcel delivery), and Docaposte (digital services), among other business lines and subsidiaries. Registration numbers and precise ownership or voting percentages for these subsidiary entities were not independently verified against primary registry filings within the scope of this research and are therefore not presented as confirmed figures. La Poste SA’s own share capital is held by Caisse des Depots et Consignations and the French State.
Data availability
Corporate-linkage information is Partial: the relationship between this establishment and its parent legal entity, La Poste SA, is verified through official French registry data, but a fully verified subsidiary-by-subsidiary ownership table (with registration numbers and percentages for entities such as La Banque Postale, Geopost and Docaposte) was not independently confirmed for this profile and has been omitted rather than estimated.
