Launched in 2021, the strategic plan was updated in 2023 to take account of adverse economic conditions, simplify its structure and align its financial and non-financial strategic trajectories.

Over the next 10 years, we're going to be helping to transform the world. First, the demographic transition. Through our services, we know how to meet the needs of the elderly, combat the isolation caused by digital technology, and help people age well at home. Faced with the territorial transition, we are building the future locally, thanks to the presence of letter carriers and women, our post offices and our points of contact in priority urban neighborhoods, as well as in rural areas. We are accelerating the ecological transition. We are leaders in sustainable finance and a driving force in the decarbonization of our logistics. Finally, with regard to the digital transition, we have a mission to support the use of digital technology to combat exclusion.
