Under the terms of article L. 5-2 of the postal code and electronic communications (hereinafter " CPCE "), the rates for the benefit of the universal service are the subject of a multiannual framework defined by the ARCEP after consideration of the proposal by La Poste: " The Electronic Communications and Postal Regulatory Authority: [...] 3 ° Decides, after examination of the proposal of La Poste or, failing a proposal, ex officio after it has informed it, of the multiannual framework characteristics of the rates of the universal service, which may, if necessary, distinguish Consignments in number of consignments [...] shall ensure the sustainability of the universal service [...]
7 ° Takes into account, in all its reasoned opinions and decisions, the financial balance of universal service obligations, in Explaining its analyses, including economic analysis; [...] ".
This Decision constitutes the fourth framework, after those covering the periods 2006-2008 (Decision No. 2006-0576), 2009-2012 (Decisions Nos. 2008-1286 and 2011-1451) and 2013-2015 (Decision No. 2012-1353). It lays down a new multiannual framework for the period 2015-2018 and repeals the previous arrangements provided for in Decision No 2012-1353.
I. -Context
La Poste is facing a profound change in its economic environment linked to the acceleration of the decline in mail volumes. Between 2008 and 2012, the number of postal items per capita decreased in France by 4.3 % per year and, in 2013, inflows into the universal service field decreased by 5.5 %. Similar developments have occurred in other European countries. They are indicative of a decrease in postal usage, which coincides with the increasing digitisation of exchanges.
The economic model of postal operators is characterised by the presence of economies of scale (plus the volumes of objects transported are The higher the cost to the object is small), by a significant proportion of labour costs, and, where appropriate, by obligations related to public service missions. These factors limit the ability to adapt loads to volumes. This is why the structural reductions of the latter destabilise the economic model of postal operators.
In the face of this situation, operators can seek to restore the balance of their economic models by reducing the Costs remaining in relation to their public service missions, by reducing their charges and by raising their prices. In this respect, many European posts have already implemented significant tariff increases.
In France, La Poste has committed, as of the end of 2013, the preparation of a strategic plan for the period 2014-2020. This plan notes the structural decline in the volumes and attendance at post offices resulting from the increasing reliance on electronic communications, as well as the resulting decrease in margins. La Poste sets itself the objective in its strategic plan the development of its activities, existing as new, and a decrease in its costs.
In this context, La Poste and the ARCEP examined, during the first half of 2014, the execution Forecast of the tariff framework covering the period 2013-2015. This system, fixed by Decision No. 2012-1353, was designed to ensure the economic equilibrium of the universal service by maintaining the margin rate on the perimeter of the tariff framework. It leaves La Poste the possibility of an annual increase equal to the rate of inflation + 1 %, of the average price of the universal service between 2013 and 2015. It is based on the assumption of an average annual change in volumes of 4.1 %, and that of a decrease in charges, in real terms, of [...] %.
In 2013, the decrease in volumes is 5.8 % and that of the charges, in real terms, of [...] % (1), this Which reveals a less adaptive capacity than expected of these charges to the evolution of volumes. The outlook for the years 2014 and 2015 in terms of the evolution of the charges and the volumes confirms this observation: they would lead, over the period of the current arrangement, to an average annual change in volumes of-5.3 % for an evolution The possible implementation of the inflation-adjustment mechanisms and the volumes provided for in Decision No. 2012-1353 would have only a limited effect (2).
The objective of maintaining the balance Economy on the perimeter of the tariff framework would not be achieved. In addition, the activities under the universal service would no longer be able to cover the costs of accessibility of the universal postal service while contributing to the general and structural costs of the group or, a fortiori, to contribute to the financing Other public service obligations. The ARCEP and La Poste have therefore agreed to reform the existing system.
On 28 May 2014, the leaders of La Poste were auditioned by the Authority. They presented the strategic orientations of the La Poste Group over the period 2014-2020 as well as the economic issues relating to the universal service on this horizon. The representatives of La Poste presented the group's action plan by 2020, which constitutes the strategic plan, identifying in particular the impacts on activities linked to the universal service. Finally, they provided an analysis of the sensitivity of the group's results and the balance of the universal service to different scenarios of tariff increases.
As a result of these exchanges, the ARCEP and La Poste agreed on the The definition of a new tariff framework for the years 2015 to 2018, for a period of four years. It is thus part of the dynamic of the strategic plan, which provides for a stage in 2018. This period of four years, longer than the previous arrangements, should also allow the first measures of the plan to take full effect during the period of supervision. Finally, a mid-term appointment clause in 2016 is intended, where appropriate, to take into account possible structural changes during the framework period.
II. -On the proposal of the La Poste Group
On 2 July 2014, in accordance with the 3 ° of Article L. 5-2 of the CPCE, La Poste forwarded to the Authority a proposal concerning the multiannual framework for the payment of benefits Universal service. Additional elements have been forwarded to the Authority, at its request, on 11 and 17 July.
This proposal is based on the items noted for the year 2013 in terms of volumes and charges and is part of a review The scope of the 2020 development strategy of the La Poste group, through its strategic plan " Conquering the future ".
La Poste's proposal takes over the four-year principle with a half-year appointment clause. The overall proposed framework constraint corresponds to the consumer price index (CPI) increased by 3.5 %, with La Poste initially considering 4 %, in a context of forecast decline in volumes estimated at-6.3 % per year between 2015 and 2018.
In view of its limited capacity for short-term adjustment, La Poste indicates that it wishes to have the opportunity to consume a significant part of its room for manoeuvre at the beginning of the period of supervision. The cumulative capacity to increase prices in real terms for the years 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2018 would thus not exceed 60 %, 80 %, 90 % and 100 % of the total available over the period.
La Poste also proposes an evolution of Adjustment mechanisms to volumes and inflation compared to those provided for in Decision No. 2012-1353. In particular, it indicates that it wishes to review the proportion of the difference in the volumes it would take in the event of the implementation of the volume adjustment mechanism (30 % in the operative part of Decision No 2012-1353, 10 % in the proposal for La Poste). Finally, it indicates its intention to increase the tariff gap between the Priority Letter and the Green Letter over the period.
III. -ARCEP analysis
1. On the method
The ARCEP analysis has been:
-on the balance of the universal service, to which the tariff framework contributes: The margin provided for by the universal postal service must be at least sufficient for, on the one hand, full financing of the cost of the universal postal service of La Poste provided for in Articles L. 2 and R. 1-1 of the CECP and, on the other hand, contribute to the general and structural costs of the group; furthermore, at the group level, the scope of the universal service provision is intended to participate, as do the other activities of the group (mail and parcel services outside the universal service, express, bank) to finance the Other public service tasks (3) (which are only partially offset by public aid) and that of normal profitability;
-on the assessment of the sharing of efforts between La Poste and the users of its services Reduced volumes; in an industry which is now marked by deeconomies of ladders and by the weight of public service missions on the sizing of the productive apparatus, this reduction in volumes implies an arbitration between, The efforts made by the operator, necessarily based on Substantial savings and, on the other hand, the efforts required of users in tariff matters.
This analysis was carried out over the period 2015 -2018, corresponding to the new system envisaged.
The ARCEP relied, In addition to the audited 2013 regulatory accounts, on several sets of forward-looking information established by La Poste, in particular those resulting from the preparation of its strategic plan by 2020. The Post thus transmitted preliminary information on its volume, turnover and expenses forecasts to the ARCEP during the months of April and May. It subsequently forwarded the estimates of charges and revenues retained as part of its strategic plan for all the trades in the group. With regard to the perimeter of the parent company, La Poste also communicated the detailed anticipated trajectories of the main load drivers as well as the anticipated volumes of mail and packages.
Over the period 2015 -2018, the ARCEP a On the perimeter of the tariff framework, an average annual growth forecast of-6.3 %, and an average rate of inflation of 1.7 %:
-in terms of volumes, the ARCEP relied on the forecasts provided By La Poste. The latter foresees, over the period 2015 -2018, an average annual development of-5.8 % of the physical volume of all mail and parcel consignments. Within the scope of the tariff framework, the corresponding average annual development is-6.3 % on the said volumes " Economic ", that is, physical volumes weighted by prices. The consistency of these forecasts was verified by the ARCEP, which assessed, for each of the main categories of mail and from the quarterly series available since 2006, the correlation that could be established between the evolution of the Volumes in this category and that of GDP. The results were generally conclusive with the introduction of a trend, independent of the evolution of GDP, indicative of a drop between the evolution of GDP and the evolution of mail volumes;
-with regard to the ARCEP has selected, for the years 2015 to 2017 those in the Government's stability programme of April 23, 2014 (4) and a value of 1.75 % for the year 2018.
The ARCEP finally assumed the Universal service obligations consistent with the current framework. The Post confirmed that " [La Poste strategic plan] does not incorporate any evolution of the regulatory framework and, in particular, does not entail any changes to the universal service obligations or to sensitive developments in the universal service offer catalogue." In addition, La Poste confirmed its inclusion in the framework of the quality of service objectives prescribed in its contract of business 2013-2017.
Moreover, the Authority notes that the maintenance of non-compensatory charges related to other service missions Public causes a deficit for La Poste.
2. Over the period 2014-2018 and the level of price cap
On the expected effects of the strategic plan for La Poste:
The strategic plan is based on ambitious, long-term objectives of commercial development and control of the Charges.
At the level of the parent company, it expects, in the face of a significant decrease in volumes, the cost savings of the order of [...] euros over the period 2014-2020. Over the period 2015 -2018, the expected savings amount to almost € [...] of €:
-on mail activity, modernization projects (including through the development of mechanization and improved productivity of industrial machinery) are associated with major reorganization efforts (implementation New organisational schemes and information systems to rationalise distribution operations, adaptation of the industrial network and logistics to the evolution of volumes); the expenses of the Courier should thus fall by [...] % (in Nominal) per year over the 2014-2020 period ([...] % over the period 2015 -2018);
-on the network of points of contact, a major adaptation effort is also planned. La Poste intends to pursue its policy of pooling points with other public services, in rural and urban areas, and to promote the development of its advisory activities, in particular financial services; these projects Should result in savings of the order of [...] % per year over the period 2014-2020 ([...] % per year over the period 2015 -2018), including a reduction in the costs of public service missions provided by the network ( [...] million and [...] million fall in the periods 2014-2020 and 2015 -2018) thanks to the development of new partnerships and new office formats; moreover, the development of banking activity should lead to a greater share of the costs of the network absorbed by this activity.
On the other hand, while deploring it, La Poste has built its financial trajectory with a hypothesis of maintaining a deficit on certain public service tasks which are only partially offset, in particular transport and Distribution of the press and land use planning. With regard to the supply of transport and distribution of the press, La Poste shows in its 2013 accounts a deficit of [...] million euros which is only offset to the amount of 248 million, leaving an amount to be borne by La Poste de [...] EUR million. This amount should [...] by 2018. With regard to the spatial planning mission, in 2012 it showed a residual deficit of EUR 82 million (the net cost of the mission, assessed by the ARCEP in 2012, at EUR 252 million (5) against compensation of the order of EUR 170 million) which should be established at EUR [...] million in 2018.
Off-parent, commercial development projects should result in an increase, in the order of EUR [...] million, of the contribution of the others Group branches (express, mail, financial services).
On Level The price framework:
The ARCEP based its analysis on the maintenance of the economic equilibrium of the universal service observed in 2013: the costs taken into account were those corresponding to the activities of universal services (including the cost Concerning the accessibility obligation of La Poste), as well as a contribution to the general and structural costs of the group. The maintenance of the margin rate observed in 2013 on this perimeter implies, in view of the decreases in volume, an annual rate change equal to the CPI increased by 3.5 % (i.e. a nominal change of 5.2 %).
In this analysis the Authority has Observed that the cost savings realized by La Poste over the period have an effect in the same order as that resulting from the tariff changes previously determined.
This development constitutes a sensitive tariff increase. As far as households are concerned, however, it should not have a significant impact on their budgets: the average consumption in postal services per year and per household is in the order of EUR 46. In addition, changes in household postal consumption (lower volumes, deferment of demand from the Priority Letter to the Verte Letter) should mitigate its impact. In the case of other postal service users, they mainly correspond to large emitters as well as to users of postage-paid machines. The former are entitled to a lower tariff increase than the average increase in the scope of the tariff framework, as has been the case in the past. The continuation of the tariff disconnection movement between private and company-use offerings should also limit the impact of tariff increases on the latter. This increase therefore seems to be compatible with the principle of affordability of the universal service offerings.
The level of the tariff ceiling chosen thus appears to be both economically necessary and a fair distribution of the Efforts between La Poste and its users in postal services.
3. On other provisions
On the consumer tunnel:
The rate constraint values on average over the period under supervision, which in theory does not prevent La Poste from achieving the total increase granted by the Price cap in one year. However, in view of the anticipated consumption by La Poste of the tariff framework covering the period 2013-2015, the duration of the new arrangement (4 years), the high level of the overall constraint (CPI + 3.5 %), the introduction of a In
light of the low adjustment capacity of La Poste in the short term in the face of declining volumes, it seemed desirable to foresee a significant consumption of the price cap in the first year. Beyond that, the Authority has adopted a more regular consumption trajectory over the remaining duration of the price cap. The rate of consumption of price cap, expressed in real terms, would be as follows:
| 50 % | 70 % | 90 % | 100 % |
On adjustment mechanisms:
The ARCEP has taken the request of La Poste to have a more responsive mechanism for variations in Volumes. It has, on the other hand, maintained the coefficients relating to the share of the observed discrepancies taken by La Poste, these coefficients reflecting a fair distribution of the efforts between the operator and its users. Thus, in the event of the implementation of the volume adjustment mechanism, La Poste will be responsible for 30 % of the difference between the estimated volumes and the volumes achieved.
Of the tariff disconnections of certain products:
THE ARCEP Ensures that La Poste's rates best reflect the underlying economy of the activities concerned. The device provided for in Decision No. 2012-1353 thus introduced obligations relating to the disconnection of the tariffs of the products used by private individuals and those for use by undertakings, on the one hand, and the products of products Priority Letter And Green Letter, on the other. The tariff increases implemented in 2013 and 2014 by La Poste contributed to the fulfilment of these obligations.
In view of the decrease in volumes and the incentive for the operator to carry out such disconnection movements of measures No longer appear to be necessary. Price monitoring appears to be more appropriate and could lead to a mid-term review of the framework for tariff developments of the products concerned.
IV. -Conclusion
In view of the elements contained in the proposal of La Poste as of 2 July 2014 and the additional elements transmitted on 11 and 17 July 2014, the Authority has defined a new tariff framework Multiannual.
The framework is set for a four-year period, the period from 1 January 2015 to 31 December 2018, and provides for an average annual increase in universal service rates of 3.5 percentage points above inflation (CPI + 3.5 %).
It sets an annual consumption limit for the rate framework, Expressed in real terms, which stands at 50 % in 2015, 70 % in 2016, 90 % in 2017 and 100 % in 2018.
It adapts the adjustment mechanism to volumes to introduce greater flexibility while maintaining the level of risk sharing between La Position and users unchanged from Decision No. 2012-1353.
This device replaces the previous one, covering the period 2013-2015.
It will be reviewed in mid-2016.
Decides:
The multiannual framework for the rates of the universal postal service shall be carried out in accordance with the procedure laid down in the document annexed to the Decision.
Decision No. 2012-1353 of the Authority dated 6 November 2012 on multi-year framework characteristics Tariffs of the universal postal service is Repealed effective 1 January 2015.
The Director General of the Authority shall be responsible for notifying La Poste of this Decision and of Ensure its execution. It will be made public, subject to the secrets protected by the law, and published on the website of the Authority and in the Official Gazette of the French Republic.
ANNEX
PLURIANNUAL ARRANGEMENT ARRANGEMENTS FOR POSTAL UNIVERSAL SERVICE PRESTATIONS
I. -The feature
The period and the reference year
The feature is for the period 2015 -2018, four years, with an appointment clause in mid-2016 after two years of execution (tariff developments 2015 and 2016). The year 2014 is the reference year.
The pricing framework
The tariff framework covers a global basket of all universal service products, with the exception of incoming cross-border products. Its synthetic composition is recalled to VII.
The average annual price evolution of the universal postal service over the period (1) checks:

JOnº 0287 of 12/12/2014, text #114
dp/p ≤ i + X
where:
i is the annual reference inflation;
X is the cap on the actual annual evolution of the universal service price (i.e., constant euros).
II. -Initialization
For the period [2015, 2018], factor X is 3.5 % under the following assumptions:
1. Inflation = 1.7 % per year;
2. Trends in trafficking = - 6.3 % per year;
The ceiling fixed for the multiannual evolution of the rates of the universal postal service is therefore equal to 5.2 % on an annual average.
The effect on the year 2015 of the tariff increases in 2014 (offers The
For a specific year (n), the annual price change The universal service basket is calculated as the evolution over the year (n - 1) the average price in year (n) of the basket of the year (n-1), the sum on the basic components of the basket:
You can view the image in the facsimile of the
JOnº 0287 of 12/12/2014, text # 114
n = ∑ [(pn-pn-1) - qn-1]/∑ [pn-1-qn-1]
In the case where information about the basket of the year (n-1) Are not available, La Poste will provide an estimate. As soon as the final information on the basket of the year (n-1) is known, the final price developments will be calculated.
The average price corresponds to the average of the prices applied during the year, weighted by the number of Days.
Reference inflation
Inflation developments are taken into account annually by taking as a new reference value the inflation rate assumed by the financial law (in).
If a Tariff change file is filed on a date when the reference inflation is not Not yet available, it is the rate of inflation retained as a hypothesis in the stability programme (1.5 % in 2015, 1.75 % in 2016 and 2017) which is used to assess compliance with the tariff framework.
Measuring Evolution Volumes
The volume is the volume handled by La Poste on the perimeter of the fixed basket for the rate framework. Its evolution is measured by a Paasche index weighting physical quantities of objects by prices,

n) - 1
This is the last formula that will be used for the calculation, based on the revenue evolution of the Universal service established in regulatory renditions.
III. -Adjustment mechanisms
Starting in the second year, the X factor of a given year can be adjusted in accordance with the adjustment mechanisms for inflation or the evolution of economic volumes. The result is an Xn * factor that takes into account either of these adjustments or the sum of the two.
Inflation-adjustment mechanism
A fix is applied in year (n) when the actual inflation rate (în-1) deviated in absolute value by more than 0.5 percentage point from the inflation rate which was accepted as a hypothesis by the previous year's law of finance (in-1). The adjustment on factor X is then done according to the formula below:
n = 1: ∆X1 = 0
n = 2, 3, or 4: ∆Xn = 0 si | ∆in-1 | < 0.5 point
∆Xn = ∆in-1/2 si | ∆in-1 | ≥ 0.5 point
with ∆in-1 = în-1-in-1
where ∆in-1 means The difference between the actual rate of inflation (în-1) for the year (n-1) and the inflation rate assumed by the law of finance (in-1) in the year (n-1).
The implementation of this mechanism is not automatic. It is triggered either at the initiative of the Authority or at the request of La Poste.
Adjustment mechanism for the evolution of economic volumes
The mechanism of adjustment to the evolution of volumes is implemented for Take into account the differences between the observed values and the values selected at initialization. The adjustment on factor X is then done according to the formula below:
n = 1: ∆X1 = 0
n = 2, 3, or 4: ∆Xn = - b-∆n-1
with b = 0.7
∆n is the difference between evolution
You can Consult the image in the facsimiles of
JOnº 0287 of 12/12/2014, text # 114
measured and the initialization hypothesis of-6.3 %. Thus, the first adjustment will be made in 2016 (year 2), with the measure for 2015 (year 1) of the difference (∆ 1) between the evolution of the volumes discovered in 2015 and-6.3 %.
The implementation of this mechanism is not automatic. It is triggered either at the initiative of the Authority or at the request of La Poste.
IV. -The rate development path
The determination of compliance with the tariff framework is based on the total duration of the device, four years. Thus the tariff increase for a given year (n) may be higher than the ceiling in + Xn * of this year (where Xn * results from any adjustments made in accordance with III), provided that the constraint
You can view the image in the facsimiles of
JOnº 0287 of 12/12/2014, text # 114
≤ i + X is averaged over the entire Period.
However, given the duration of the rate framework and the high level Allowable tariff increases, an intermediate cap is introduced each year.
This limit is set so that the tariff increase does not exceed a fraction of XT, the total increase permitted over the entire 2015 -2018 period, In real terms
The maximum total allowable increase for XT in constant euros over the period is given by: XT = X + X2 * + X3 * + X4 * where the values of X2 *, X3 * and X4 * result from any adjustments made in accordance with III. The control exercised prior to the implementation of tariff developments, the adjustments provided for in III are made only from year n = 3.
The fraction of XT that can be consumed is given by:
| 50 % | 70 % | 90 % | 100 % |
The applicable limit is therefore given by:
n= 1: P1/I1 ≤ 50 % - 4X = 2-X
n= 2: P2/I2 ≤ 70 % - 4 X = 2,8-X
n= 3:

V. -Management of the device
The tariff framework is subject to an appointment clause in mid-2016 after two years of implementation (tariff developments 2015 and 2016). The information available on this date will be in particular the audited results of the regulatory accounts relating to the years 2014 and 2015 and the tariff developments relating to the years 2015 and 2016.
On this occasion, it will be carried out A review of the realization of the evolution assumptions made by La Poste in the context of the preparation of that decision and of the tariff situation. The ARCEP will examine in particular:
1. The tariff gap between the Priority Letter and the Green Letter must reflect a satisfactory differentiation of both products. In this regard, the ARCEP hopes that the tariff gap between these two products, measured in relative value on the basis of the same basket, that of the Priority Letter, will increase over the period without narrowing the absolute gap at any time in the Period.
2. The tariff gap between the product line and the postage stamp range for individuals; the business line must be compensated for the cost savings allowed by the use of a postage meter. In this regard, the CBWRA hopes that the tariff gap between these two ranges, measured in relative terms on the basis of the same basket, that of the gear range undertaken, is at least maintained over the period
Give rise to adjustments to the tariff framework, in the event of a significant change in the economic environment taken into account for the establishment of the tariff framework (changes in volumes, inflation, labour law, Conditions for the exercise of the public service missions of La Poste,
The ARCEP will be able to collect the relevant information from The Post Office.
VI. -Reporting
La Poste will communicate no later than 31 May of the year (n + 1) for the year (n):
-the detailed annual statistics of the number of objects or products and the rates by weight range corresponding to each Universal service or provision of benefits since 2011 of the universal service scope;
-the statistics of the number of objects and the turnover corresponding to the following aggregates:
