Key facts
The Swiss Federal Audit Office (SFAO) examined Swiss Post’s risk management from May to September 2018. The general part of the audit mandate assessed the question of whether the Confederation, as the owner, sets suitable requirements for risk management and whether Swiss Post fulfils them. Based on the two case studies PostBus France and Liechtenstein, the SFAO examined in a specific section whether Swiss Post assesses, manages and communicates its risks in these two companies at the appropriate levels. Onsite visits were also made in Lyon and Vaduz. The totality of Swiss Post’s foreign risks were not assessed and these two case studies are therefore not representative.
