their impact. e assessment is used to classify the opportunities and risks into those
of low, medium or high relevance. We characterise opportunities and risks of medium
or high relevance as signicant. e following assessment scale is used:

e opportunities and risks described here are not necessarily the only ones the Group
faces or is exposed to. Our business activities could also be inuenced by additional
factors of which we are currently unaware or which we do not yet consider to be material.
Opportunities and risks are identied and assessed decentrally at Deutsche Post
Group. Reporting on possible deviations from projections, including latent opportun-
ities and risks, occurs primarily at the country or regional level. In view of the degree
ofdetail provided in the internal reports, we have combined the decentrally reported
opportunities and risks into the categories shown below for the purposes of this report.
It should be noted that the underlying individual reports – with the exception of those
on the world economy and global economic output – usually exhibit a zero to minimal
correlation. It is unlikely that several major opportunities or risks would occur system-
atically at the same time in a single category or across categories.
Unless otherwise specied, a low relevance is attached to individual opportunities
and risks within the respective categories and in the forecast period under observation
. With respect to opportunities and risks arising from potential or on-going legal
proceedings, we generally refrain from making an assessment to avoid aecting our
position in the proceedings. e opportunities and risks generally apply for all divisions,
unless indicated otherwise.
Categories of opportunities and risks
Opportunities and risks arising from political, regulatory or legal conditions
A number of risks arise primarily from the fact that the Group provides some of its
services in a regulated market. Many of the postal services rendered by Deutsche Post
and its subsidiaries (particularly the Post - eCommerce - Parcel division) are subject to
