A board of directors, that of Poste, which took place on the day in which the company was the protagonist of some indiscretions related to the dossiers concerning Tim's future: it was precisely the rumours about possible interests from Iliad and Poste that made the stock bounce Telecom on the stock exchange.
Post and rumors about Tim
According to rumours circulating in the press, Poste could also join Tim's camp, thus broadening its own market in mobile: whether this could happen with a commercial agreement or with a real entry into the capital of the telco is not clear because for the moment it is, in fact, only rumors. From what we understand, in fact, the topic was not on the agenda of today's extraordinary board of directors, focused on Anima. This solution however - experts in the sector underline - could represent an alternative to the feared risk of a further break-up and offer additional guarantees.
